They have several. The ADXRS300 will track up to 300°/S. I have not looked at the gyro that is included in the kit of parts this year. The ADXRS familiy has analog outputs that must be handled as analog signals into the robot controller.

Thanks Ken,

I have heard that there are two types of gyros, one that tells you angular speed, and one that tells you angular position.

correct me if i'm wrong, but wouldn't an angular position gyro work better for our purposes and be simpler?
