Re: Recommended gyros that can keep up with fast rotation?

Yep, the 453 is an excellent gyro. Though I don't think you really need 45 seconds to calibrate it.

It's rare that the actual rotation rate of the robot by itself will saturate the gyro. What's more likely is that collisions will. A short period of saturation can throw a gyro off by a substantial amount.

That can usually be solved by giving the drivers the ability to rezero, or by making your calculations relative to something else, like a camera angle.
