This video explains how to use the MPU-6050 for the measurement of the roll, pitch and yaw rotation rates. You will learn how to connect the GY-521 breakout board to your Teensy 4.0 microcontroller and how to access the rotation rate measurements.

The purpose of this video series is to learn the basics behind a quadcopter drone and enable you to build one yourself, by dividing this challenging project in several easy-to-understand parts. You use the capable Teensy 4.0 microcontroller together with the easy-to-use Arduino language.
