Thanks,

As a double check here is the test code we used on the EDU controller.
Hold the gyro level and twist it quickly 90 degrees or more in the horizontal plane.

// this assumes in User_Initialization() at least...
IO1 = INPUT;
Set_Number_of_Analog_Channels(ONE_ANALOG);
 
 
 
// in Process_Data_From_Master_uP():
 
unsigned int gyro;
static unsigned long gyroSum=0;
static unsigned int counter=0;
 
/* This sample assumes a 26.2ms loop */
gyro = Get_Analog_Value(rc_dig_in01);
gyroSum += gyro;
counter++;
 
if (counter > 40)
{
	gyroSum = gyroSum/counter;
	printf(" gyro = %d \n", (int)gyroSum); /* values are in the range 0-1023 */
	counter = 0;
	gyroSum = 0;
}

[edit] Fixed small bug in printf. We use different print functions, Sorry.
