Hi,
Does anyone know if Parallax's gyro and accelerometer will work for building Hanno's balancing robot in chapter 6 of the propeller customizing book?

Sadly I haven't worked on my DanceBot for a while- too busy with my other projects...
However, the LISY300 gyro looks ok. Digital interface makes things easy. The 88Hz update rate is a bit slow- for DanceBot I was reading the gyro, applying the kalman correction, and driving the h-bridges at 200Hz. High update rate is critical for very short balancing bots, as you make them taller you don't need to react as quickly. (Try balancing a broomstick and then a pencil on your hand...)
The H48C looks fine.
