Deterministic error modelling, calibration and model parameter estimation of consumer‐grade accelerometers is considered and improvement to the traditionally used measurement model is proposed. Calibration experiments on a flight motion simulator are performed for experimental verification. Model parameters are estimated using the Levenberg‐Marquardt optimisation algorithm. Residual errors are considerably reduced as a result of the improved measurement model.
