Re: Need help with which one to use
For stuff like angles I recommend an absolute encoder. They are not that expensive (from a FRC point of view) and, in my experience, easy to use and reliable. The code for an absolute encoder should be easier to write to.
Edit: I remember something about accelerometers and gyros being sensitive to vibrations (like those from a shooter). It's not that the vibrations harm the device, they just make it hard to get any useful output data.
