I believe at this point, my team is still planning on a somewhat complex steering system. I won't go into details, because it's our teams "secret". In any case, (since I'm the programmer) I was thinking I'd use the gyro to "kick in" the advanced steering system. Basically, if the robot's not turning, and it should be, apply the steering mechanism. I think that would be easier on the driver than having to manually apply it. Just an idea that others may also be able to use.
