Reliable vibration data
I used this to monitor motor vibrations on a custom drone frame. The data consistency is excellent, and the form factor is small enough to fit anywhere.

Good for learning embedded systems
Bought this for my final year project. It performs well for tilt sensing. Just make sure your logic levels match if you are using 3.3V boards.

Plug and play simplicity
Unlike raw MPU6050 chips that require complex I2C libraries, this pre-programmed module outputs ready-to-use angles via UART. Saved me hours of coding.

Great value, minor documentation gaps
The sensor works flawlessly once you get the baud rate settings correct. The included manual could be more detailed regarding the configuration commands, but online forums helped.

Perfect for robotics projects
This module is incredibly easy to integrate with Arduino and Raspberry Pi. The angle calculation is stable and the serial output is clean. Highly recommended for balance robots.
Q: Can I change the output frequency of the sensor?
A: Yes, the output frequency is configurable via serial commands. You can set it anywhere from 1Hz up to 1000Hz depending on your application needs.
Q: Does this module require an external microcontroller to calculate angles?
A: No, the WT61C has an onboard processor that calculates the angles internally. It outputs the final angle data directly via serial communication.
Q: Does the package include mounting screws?
A: The module comes with mounting holes, but screws are not included in the standard package. Standard M2 or M3 screws fit the holes depending on your chassis.
Q: What software do I need to configure the initial settings?
A: You can use any standard serial terminal software like PuTTY, Tera Term, or the Arduino Serial Monitor to send configuration commands to the device.
Q: Is this compatible with 5V Arduino Uno boards?
A: Yes, the module operates within a 3.3V to 5.0V range, making it fully compatible with the 5V logic of the Arduino Uno without needing a level shifter.
