Re: gyrochip
When our auto didn't work in Canada, our head programmer used wheel encoders to move the robot out exactly 2.5ft and rotate left/right at precise 45 degree angles (gyro) while the Chicken Dance song was playing (thanks Mr. Breadner for honoring my request) and the entire drive team was doing the chicken dance.

So what if it wasn't useful. It was awesome
