I have been working on my RN1 for a while, Ive found some cool codes to download from Bauerindependants.com. They are great, however im having some issues intergrating that into robobasic. I can cut and paste the codes for the "gyro" and "workout routine" but cannot "add" it to the robobasic template ( I tried deleting line K2 and inserting, then ran program...lots of errors. Any help...please? Please forgive my newness :?

Look through past posts, I think that there is one on the differences between a GWS and a Cyclone PG-03.

Okay, i did some research and learned "good gyros arent cheap, and cheap gyros arent good". Just receieved my GWS gyro and threw the CYCLONE out! BEWARE of cheap competitors!
I have it set up and adjusted, however there is a little vibration (best way i can explain it) when the robot is finished correcting itself (lasts about 1 second) other than adjusting the knobs on the GWS, is there any other ways to perfect it? :P

That is normal. You can adjust the sensitivity lower to make it stop sooner, but then you lose sensitivity. Higher priced gyros have dampening settings, delays, all kinds of stuff to dial them in more accurate, but IMHO it is not worth it for the Robonova, nor would they fit practically on it.
I have a futaba gy611 on one of my helis - i think it was over $400 with 1 servo. The GWS has worked good for me on the robonova, i just adjusted the sensitivity until it oscillates, then back it off just a tick.
