The invention is a surface inclination-measuring system including a vehicle having a longitudinal axis and adapted for movement on a surface having support means that engage the surface and define a reference plane. Mounted on the vehicle is a gravity-responsive accelerometer having a single sensitive axis oriented substantially parallel to both the vehicle's longitudinal axis and the reference plane defined by the support means. The accelerometer provides a first signal proportional both to gravitational acceleration and changes in the vehicle's longitudinal speed. Also included in the system is a velocity-measuring device that produces a velocity signal proportional to the longitudinal velocity of the vehicle and a differentiator for receiving the velocity signal and producing a second signal proportional to the rate of change thereof. A combining circuit produces an output signal dependent upon the inclination of the surface over which the vehicle is moving.
