Master Code

We had the camera and the gyro working, but when we hooked up an encoder the gyro stopped working.

So...now we have the camera and an encoder working but not the gyro.

Do any teams have some kind of "Master Code" that has the camera, the gyro, and an encoder working together?

Would any be willing to distribute it?

Otherwise would you be willing to help us get the gyro working?

It doesn't printf the angle at all and the rate doesn't seem quite right either even though it is giving us values.

We made a turn command that turns the robot until the gyro says we have turn a given number of degrees.

Strangely it will turn for what seems to be a random amount of time and then stop. It's never the angle we told it to go, but the gyro is registering something it seems.

Thanks,
