ADXRS453 gyro returning incorrect rate above medium speed

Last year was our first year using the ADXRS453 and it was beautiful but this year it is giving us issues. When we turn clockwise faster than +100 º/s it jumps to a negative rate and when we turn -200 º/s it gives a rate around 0. The max rate for this gyro is +/- 300 º/s. We've tried multiple gyros and we have the same problem and are using the same code from last year to read it (code here http://bit.ly/1U2Xplj). Has anyone experienced anything similar with the ADXRS453 or other gyros?
