Re: Class ADXRS450_Gyro output angles?

If so then our drive straight routine will need some pre-processing of the angle data before we use it. I don't want to invent something that might not be needed.

Can anyone verify that the ADXRD450 GetAngle() method does indeed output angles in the 0-360 degree and beyond range?
We just tested with this sensor recently. We found that it did go past 360 (and also -360 if you turn it CCW).

(Disclaimer: We use Java, but that shouldn't matter)
