ok here is the thing. any thing you can do in MP lab I can do in easyC . . and Ill do in in 1/10 the time. its also alot easier to show some one easyC flowcharts than to try to explain 100+ lines of C.

I dont use easyC because Im not an experienced coder(3rd year CS/EE student) I use easy C because I want it done now, and not 2 days from now. yes I could deal with all the stress of getting gyro bias or messing with kevins camera code(btw with EasyC you could plug your servos in to the camera board and not have to run 2 more wires to the RC), then trying to get the gyro code and the camera code and the gear tooth sensor code working together. Or I can just drop in a camera block, a gyro block and a geartooth block, and have it all up and running in 5 min.

the real thing here is easyC is different than what youve been doing before. but if you give it half a chance(on its own terms, that means not wishing it had this or that, but accepting it for what it does have ) youll find that its not only good its GREAT!
