Re: Gyro Repeatability, Expected Drift ?

Our robot is capable of doing repeatable 90deg turns just using the gear teeth sensors. It's not perfect, and it depends on traction, but we couldn't get the gyro to behave reliably. We were consistently getting 3 lines, and had the IR worked at a greater distance we could have hit 4.
