Gyro Sensor Questions

I was thinking about using this years gyro in the KOP to keep our robot driving straight, but a mentor expressed to me that the gyro would have problems detecting the slow rate of turn we have. He said that the gyro was better at detecting drastic turns like 90 degrees.

You teams that have used the KOP gyro before, can you tell me how realible and sensitive it is for detecting turns and for keeping the robot in a straight path?

Much appriecated,

Alex
