o alright sorry.. its drift

when i posted that, we had just tried seeing if they all ( the analog value from Get_Analog_Value and the Get_Gyro_Angle ) stayed zero when we didn't touch the gyro or anything. it ended up drifting 1 (tenth of degree? its not in milliradians any more, so i believe its tenths of a degree) every 15 loops or so.
however, now the drift is much worse and its 1 tenth of degree every 2 loops...

thanks....

Thanks for making FIRST such a great experience for me. I'm no longer on 1351, and I'm not currently planning to mentor team 97, but FIRST has meant so much in getting me to where I am now, in life and at MIT, class of 2011.
I met Billfred! He recognized me!
