I’m not sure what is wrong with it. The turn right function works properly, but turning left makes the robot turn 180 degrees instead of 90.
I’m using a mBot and the makeblock Me 3-Axis Accelerometer and Gyro Sensor V1.2
Variables gyro_z_offset is defined to be the current angle of the robot at the start of the program and ideal angle is set to 0 (also at the start)

@Best_codes? Do you have anything? I can’t see anything wrong.

@holothere
Something you need to check:
When spinning to the right and left, does the z axis value always increase in both directions from the center, or does it decrease in one direction and increase in the other?
