Last year there was a thread about this. The Q was can we use the gyro chip on the 2004 bot? The A from First was NO as it was a custom item built for First and would not be a COTS item. There was a similar version from the manufacture, however I think most went with the chip version, as it was smaller and lighter. Search for gyro and follow the threads.
