Arduino and FRC Sensors
Well, on my grand Arduino goals I am going to try to use the various FRC sensors such as the Accelerometer, Gyro, and the Rotary/Linear Magnetic Encoders.

My 2 biggest goals are the Accel and Gyro but I my team has never used these before and so I am going to start by getting it to work with the Arduino (hopefully easier, and I don't have the cRIO over break).

I noticed that the Accel is the same 1 as on SparksFun except the board connectors are different and the documents provided by FIRST seem quite complex. So step 1 would be figuring out how to set it up and then program it.

Anyone have some advice to start the code or can mention the proper way to connect it to the arduino.

Thanks!
Davis
