Re: gyro.h help

The ADXRS300 sensitivity is 5 millivolts per degree/second.

The constant in the code is in tenth-degree/second per volt.

5 millivolts per degree/second is 0.005 volts per degree/second.

0.005 volts per degree/second is 0.0005 volts per tenth-degree/second.

0.0005 volts per tenth-degree/second is 2000 tenth-degree/second per volt.

Is that clear?
