GWS Piezo Gyro PK 3
How the gyro works. Firstly, a PWM servo signal is continually sent to the gyro. This same signal is output for use by a servo (or microcontroller) but the value is adjusted when the gyro is rotated about its axis of measurement.

GWS Piezo Gyro
A Piezo Gyro senses rotation about a single axis and outputs a servo signal intended to be used to counter that rotation. Piezo gyros are typically used in R/C aircraft to stabilize flight by automaticaly countering unwanted motion, e.g. from wind. They can also be used in robotics for balancing, or to detect rotation, or to drive a "tracking" servo which continues to point to a fixed object even if your robot turns.
Extremely small and light, this gyro can be used on almost any sized robot. Comes with universal 3-pin connectors, for compatibility with all brands of servos and radio gear.
