Re: Gyroscope saturation?
Bilbo, read this year's sensor manual. We have a new gyro. Last year's was 150 dps - so I wasn't terribly worried about saturating it with quick turns.

Thanks guys. I think I'll do both the code and purchase a higher dps one just to be sure. Better safe than sorry when it comes to the drivetrain.

Kevin, I'll admit that most of the words they're using on the specs page are foreign to me (mechanical engineer doing controls, go figure). Will the ADXRS300 simply "drop" in place of the KOP gyro using your same code?
