Good value but needs calibration
For the price, it's excellent. Just note that you need to calibrate the offsets for accurate angle readings.

Solid module
Works as expected. Wiring diagram could be clearer but standard I2C pins work fine.
Q: Does it come with pins soldered?
A: Usually headers are not soldered by default to allow for custom wiring, but check your specific package option.
Q: Which library do you recommend?
A: We recommend the Adafruit MPU6050 library or the standard Wire library for I2C communication.
Q: Is this compatible with 5V logic?
A: Yes, the module includes a voltage regulator and level shifter, making it safe for 5V microcontrollers.
Q: What is the sampling rate?
A: The gyro and accel sensors have programmable digital filters and can sample up to 8kHz.
Q: Can I use this with Raspberry Pi?
A: Yes, it works well with Raspberry Pi via the GPIO I2C pins. Ensure I2C is enabled in raspi-config.
