Solid cuboid

I = 1/12 M ( a^2 + b^2 )

Ideal

I_roll \approx I_yaw, I_pitch << I_roll, I_yaw

Interestingly, a sphere is not idael from the perspective of PID control/axis coupling.

width	height	length
2.5 cm	5.5 cm	9 cm

axis	approximate moment of inertia	relative ratio
pitch	I \propto 2.5^2 + 5.5^2 = 36.5	1
roll	I \propto 5.5^2 + 9^2 = 111.25	3.05
yaw	I \propto 2.5^2 + 9^2 = 87.25	2.39
