🎢 Elevate your projects with 6-axis motion precision — don’t get left behind!
The HiLetgo GY-521 MPU-6050 is a compact 6 DOF sensor module combining a 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer with a 16-bit AD converter. It communicates via standard I2C protocol, supports wide measurement ranges (±2 to ±16g acceleration, ±250 to ±2000°/sec gyroscope), and is designed for seamless integration with Arduino and other microcontrollers, making it ideal for motion detection, robotics, and orientation sensing projects.

Magic electronic smoke after 5V Arduino out input to board VCC
Magic electronic smoke after 5V Arduino out input to board VCC. The board should be able to handle that voltage. Voltage regulator has no marks, so can't even look that up.

Revised blue board version is not worth the time trying to hope you can make it work.
This newer batch of blue ones does not seem to function correctly out of the box. It looks like others found the same issue and varying attempts to make it work with limited success. It is not worth the time trying to see if you have a bad unit or if you can surgically patch it together to make it function. Looking at the data coming out of mine is not correct. It does not track X or Y axis at all. The values move just sitting still and very between 84 and 89 degrees no matter how it is moved. No idea on the g sensor. Find something else.

Very poor accuracy.
I needed to apply a major correction to the z acceleration axis- it was reading very nearly twice what it should. (I don't know if the other axes are that bad, yet.)
