Yes, you'd need something to provide two pulse trains to the gyro: one
to emulate the elevator control output of a receiver, and one to
control the gyro mode. And you'd probably want manual control inputs
to both.
Plus, what Beav said. If your glider is certificated Normal, it's an
unauthorized airframe modification: the FAA and your insurance company
will have one cow each. If it's certificated Experimental, you may be
OK.
And what's the point? The most this thing will do is keep the glider
from going out of control while you use the pee bag, and for that
purpose, between a pitch controller and a wing leveler I'd take the
latter.
