Talking Re: How to Mount a Gyro

If you are trying to measure the angle of the robot you are going to want to mount it closest to the middle of the robot on a platform that insulates the gyro from anything else (ex. wood,rubber,etc)

Last year we put it in a wood box and mounted the box to the frame.
