Re: Gyro not sensing angular change

You can open an analog channel and read it, then output that to a graph on the front panel. The Gyro Angle is multiplied by the gyro gain, which is low. Try reading the raw analog channel instead of the gyro. That will tell you a raw analog voltage, then spin the robot really fast (max speed, if possible), and you should get a change.
