    Hi all,

    Would a accelorometer like AZDelivery GY-61 compatible with ADXL335 Accelerometer Angle Sensor Module compatible with Arduino work on a 2DOF motion rig powered by wheelchair motor?

    Best regards,

    Yes, I don't see why not as long as you can write the code and integrate it into your system. Is it for motion compensation purposes?

    I was thinking of replacing the hall sensors by one gyro. Not sure if this is feasable.
    Most likely going for the well known, proven hall sensors.
    Still ordered the gyro, so gonna fiddle around with it.

    Thanks for the reply.
