Accelerometer

Hi. I want to make an if statement that says: if gyroscope is flat (doesn't have to be exactly flat)...then serial print :flat

However...I don't know how to see if the gyroscope if flat. Can someone please help? Thanks. :slight_smile:

Did you mean accelerometer?

Yeah

You could learn how to use the accelerometer as a tilt meter.

Hint: tilt=0 means that it is level.

Then look down to item #7 about how to post your code.
It will be formatted in a scrolling window that makes it easier to read.

Have you written any code reading an accelerometer?
What model accelerometer and what model Arduino?
