Glitchy gyro sensors

This may be of some help:

Whats the best way to mount an IMU?

the old gyro and new inertial sensor both use the same underlying technology, obviously the new inertial sensor is a much more recent design, but they will both be affected by vibrations (I hear load music can have an impact). you should do tests with the IMU mounted in different positions to find the best position for your specific robot.

How do I Calibrate Inertial Sensor in Pre_Auton?

When you run a program, the inertial sensor starts a calibration sequence, the first second of that sequence does not look at gyro values, it just waits for everything to stabilize, so any movement from touching the V5 should have stopped. It won’t hurt if you restart the calibration at the beginning of your program, I’m just saying that it’s not strictly necessary. You can also choose to manually recalibrate the inertial sensor at any time by going to the dashboard and selecting calibrate, yo…

Here’s something a little more comprehensive that would print more information

Internal Sensor broken?

While our robot was once working perfectly fine with the auton I developed before the plane trip here, while calibrating we found the internal sensor to now drift massively. Im confused as to what is going on, or if this is supposed to happen, but I need assistance. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/451558230439493643/672672700942254120/video0.mov
