GY521/MPU6050 Problems reading the X/Y angle

Other Hardware Sensors

Hi all,

i have ordered some of these modules from Amazon, the communication is running and the samples give me values, but none of them makes sense...

I tried several libraries, tryed several calculations but it does not nearly respresent any known angle: if I put the board on the table, the values are around 0 (+/- something), if i put it on the left side, X shows me something like -50 and Y is changing too...

Does somebody had the same problems getting these modules running, or are these modules garbage?

Thanks for any help...

Without seeing your code + details on the actual MPU6050 module you have + how you've wired it up, we can't even make an educated guess.

Have you seen this tutorial:
