HiLetgo 3pcs GY-521 MPU-6050 MPU6050 3 Axis Accelerometer Gyroscope Module 6 DOF 6-axis Accelerometer Gyroscope Sensor Module 16 Bit AD Converter Data Output IIC I2C for Arduino

I recently acquired the HiLetgo 3pcs GY-521 MPU-6050 Accelerometer Gyroscope Modules for my Arduino projects, and they have proven to be invaluable tools for accurate motion sensing and control. These modules integrate a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope, providing comprehensive 6-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) motion sensing capabilities. They utilize a 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for precise data output via I2C communication, making them ideal for applications requiring real-time motion detection and orientation tracking. The modules are compact and easy to integrate with Arduino microcontrollers, offering flexibility in robotics, drone stabilization, gesture recognition, and more. Their reliability and performance make them suitable for both beginners and advanced users exploring sensor-based projects. Overall, the HiLetgo GY-521 MPU-6050 modules are an excellent choice for enhancing motion sensing capabilities in Arduino projects. They provide accurate data output and are versatile for a wide range of applications. Highly recommended for their quality and affordability.

Works as expected as a gyro on smart car using arduino. There is some freezing of the x/y while z works. Does not always happen but no issues otherwise. Easy to use. Good value for the price.

Accurate and fun to use.

It comes in 3, which makes it a pretty good value for $10. However, it is extremely hard to setup, and start getting acceleration/angle data from it. It's extremely convoluted. Once it works however, it works accurately with a good offset. If there isnt an offset, the reading will drift off even when the sensor is still.

İt is working good

Have not had any unexpected issues. You might have a faulty chip every now and then, but that's the way cheap electronics work. Make sure to double check wiring if you can't get it working.

Not sure if you would get more value out of a more expensive one. All features seems to work fine. Kinda fried one, but nice it comes with 3.

I got a package of three MPU6050 a few days ago. I grabbed the first one and tested it with the first piece of code I found, and it seemed to work but it drifted a lot. I tried it with Adafruit's code and it wouldn't initialize. After a few hours of testing I found a line of code on the library, that is intended to check if it's using the correct chip, wasn't returning the correct value: reading a registry from the chip should return the value 0x68, but this one returns 0x72. The other two boards return the correct value, and the ICs on them (left on the picture) look different from the one on the non-working one (right one on the picture). So... as it's often the case, trying to save a few bucks didn't really work. You may as well buy something slightly more expensive, if it works.

Tested with Arduino models Nano and Leonardo.

Funziona perfettamente, grande rapporto qualita' prezzo.

Capteur correct, la précision est largement suffisante. Beaucoup de documents sur internet

Ho collegato il sensore alla basetta ESP8266 Huzzan con connessione I2C. Il sensore si basa sul chip MPU6050 e quindi ho scaricato una libreria compatibile per eseguire il test. Prima di utilizzare il sensore è necessario effettuare la calibrazione e la si esegue caricando nell'ESP8266 un programma di calibrazione. Dopo aver acceso il modulo è necessario porre in posizione orizzontale il sensore con le scritte rivolte verso l'alto. Attendere un pò di tempo ( anche qualche minuto ) dopo il programma restituisce a terminale i valori di offset da impostare nei programmi successivi. Il sensore risulta preciso e di ottima qualità.
