Re: Delay after resetting Gyro

In our case, we only care about what that maneuver accomplishes. For example, turn 45 deg, drive 5 feet, turn 45 degrees, etc.

We found that by resetting the gyro before each turn clears the drift inherent in the KOP gyro, producing a more accurate result. We keep track of the overall angle difference from the beginning to the end to be able to correct for any deviation actually incurred.
