2c. Gyroscope - Amarygdala/FRC-5911 GitHub Wiki
Exercise proper precautions when handling sensitive electronics!
Overview
The gyroscope measures the angle and orientation of the robot. This is useful for driving straight and specific angle turns in teleop and autonomous.
What you need
- Gryoscope (should be already attached to the RoboRIO)
Code
side note for gyro
you may see that there are a bunch of stuff with the gyro in the Bravo1 code where the drive code is like this
drive.tankDrive(stick1.getY(Hand.kLeft)+ 1.0 * error/30, stick1.getY(Hand.kLeft)- 1.0 * error/30);
this just makes it so that the robot moves straight when A button is held down. You may find that the robot has trouble moving straight if you already drove it.
