Post Re: Yaw Sensor

Just a heads up... You cant use the gyro from last years kit (very clear... see the QA id's #341, 346, 190). Therefore, you have to use a different one under the custom electronics pricing. The only real viable option is the ADXRS series from Analog Devices, and if you need more then 150 deg/sec, then it will get much harder (the Evaluation Board version of the 300 deg/sec model is just barely over the price limit... you will need to mount 300 deg/sec yourself). Nobody made it very clear in the previous posts, and I didnt know what gyro you were using to begin with.
