I2C errors and gyro data not being detected, please help.

Post by Alpha15 »

Hello,

I'm trying to make a Arduino based drone using a MPU6050 gyro and accelerometer module, following Electronoob's guide on YouTube. After wiring the I2C connection, and compiling and uploading the MultiWii sketch, I tried to test using the MultiWiiConf.exe program, but the gyro is rarely being detected. By this I mean that the signal spikes at random intervals and most of the time there is no gyro data being detected. The I2C errors number also fluctuates between -3200 and +3200. I'm really lost on what to do. I even tested using the Arduino i2c connection test code and it detected the module just fine. Could it be a faulty gyro module? Or maybe a bad solder connection? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
