I forgot to mention:
DO NOT SHOCK MOUNT YOUR GYRO!
you dont want it padded from the frame - you want it firmly mounted so it moves exactly as the frame moves. If the gyro is wobbling around or is acting like its mounted on springs, then your feedback system is going to be wacked out!
also make sure you mount it on the most solid part of your frame, not anyplace that bends or twists when the bot is in use.
the gyro already has an internal bandwidth limit (filtering) so random impacts and vibrations will be averaged out over time - if something hits your bot so hard that it accelerates faster than 75°/S then you need to put bumpers on your ROBOT! - not on your gyro :c)
