Re: Gyro Rate

Yes, that should be correct. A few precauctions, when the gyro is initialized, the robot needs to be still/stable for a second. We found that pressing the reset button after the robot is in place helps to get more predictable results. We have also found it possible to turn faster that the gyro can keep up. A rapid turn will not register properly.
