Good sensor, pin labeling unclear
The sensor itself is accurate and responsive. However, the pinout silk screen on the board was a bit faint. Once I figured out the wiring, it worked great for my balancing robot.

Reliable stabilization module
Using this for a small quadcopter. The gyro response is fast enough for basic stabilization. Very happy with the purchase.

Perfect for my Arduino drone
Works flawlessly with the standard libraries. The serial output option makes it much easier to interface without dealing with complex I2C timing. Highly recommended for beginners.

Great value for money
Bought this for my final year project. It provides stable data and the tilt detection is quite precise. Shipping was fast too.

Works but needs calibration
Out of the box, the readings were a bit off. Had to spend time calibrating the offsets. Once calibrated, it is okay. Documentation could be more detailed.
Q: What is the difference between this and the standard GY-521?
A: This module features a direct serial output option which simplifies communication compared to the standard I2C only interface on the GY-521.
Q: Can I use this for outdoor applications?
A: The module is not waterproof. You should enclose it in a protective case if used outdoors.
Q: Is this compatible with 5V Arduino Uno?
A: Yes, the module includes a voltage regulator and logic level shifting, so it is safe to use with 5V boards.
Q: Does this come with example code?
A: We provide a link to a GitHub repository with Arduino and Python examples in the product description.
Q: How do I connect this to a Raspberry Pi?
A: You can connect via the I2C pins. Ensure you enable I2C in the Raspberry Pi configuration settings.
