Re: Shooters: What have you learned?

Don't solid-mount your gyro to your turret or other vibrating chassis components. Use a soft material that will damp vibrations. Note: we only learned this yesterday, when we took the time to do proper analysis on our gyro's heading over time. Makes it hard to auto-aim straight if your gyro starts drifting about 1deg/sec when the shooter turns on.
