We're using an innovative test method where the robot is placed on a chair with wheels (after the bench had been removed and replaced with a wooden board) to simulate movements without turning any motors on...all of this to simply test the gyro.

Not as innovative as our testing method. :P
We had someone from electronics sit there and rotate it for us.

"No, the other way. That way, darn it. Yes, that way."

Created a much livelier atmosphere that what your swivel chair (which is pretty cool too) seems to have created.

It's hard to see, but we have a small laser pen (it's in my hand, on the robot) that indicates which angle the robot is.

It's working very well.
