Perfect for my self-balancing robot

The Kalman filter implementation on this JY61 module works flawlessly. It provides stable angle data immediately upon power-up, which saved me hours of coding my own filter. Highly recommended for robotics projects.

Beginner friendly

As someone new to sensors, the serial output made it very easy to read data using a simple terminal program before integrating it into my code. The community support for this specific module is also excellent.

Great value, easy to interface

Connected easily to my Arduino via UART. The data output is clean and the latency is low. Only giving 4 stars because the documentation could be slightly more detailed regarding register maps, but overall a solid sensor.

Saved my final year project

I needed a reliable IMU for my university project and this module delivered. The built-in processing means I don't need a powerful microcontroller to handle the raw data fusion. Works exactly as described.

Good stability, fast shipping

Using this for a camera gimbal stabilizer. The angle readings are smooth and responsive. It handles vibration better than raw MPU6050 modules I've used before. Good product for the price.

Consistent performance across multiple units

Bought ten of these for our workshop. Every single unit performed consistently with minimal calibration required. The form factor is compact and fits well into small enclosures.

5 FAQ

Q: Can I disable the Kalman filter and get raw data?

A: While the module is optimized for fused angle output, you can send specific configuration commands to access raw accelerometer and gyroscope data if needed for custom processing.

Q: Does this module work directly with Raspberry Pi?

A: Yes, it works perfectly with Raspberry Pi. You can connect it via the I2C pins (GPIO 2 and 3) or use the UART serial pins. Make sure to enable the respective interface in raspi-config.

Q: Does it come with mounting holes?

A: Yes, there are four mounting holes located at the corners of the PCB with a standard spacing, making it easy to screw onto brackets or 3D printed parts.

Q: What is the update rate of the sensor data?

A: The default output rate is typically 100Hz, but this can be configured via serial commands to range from 1Hz up to 200Hz depending on your bandwidth requirements.

Q: Is the 5V input safe for the logic levels?

A: Yes, the module includes an onboard voltage regulator and level shifting, so it is safe to power it with 5V and communicate with 3.3V or 5V microcontrollers without additional components.
