Re: Autonomous Start Delay

Most of the Opens that do initialization are super fast, way under a millisecond. The exception is the gyro, and I suppose the accelerometer. Because these are trying to measure a baseline, they need to calibrate for drift when known to be stationary, and they average many values to get a good estimate. You may want to move the gyro init to Begin or outside the loop, then write it to a global to be used in auto.
