It's still not right, though. Even after the user's calibration, it measures different angles when rotated 180 degrees while sitting in the same place. Also, the measured angle continues to drift off even after the settling in time. We're going to call them tomorrow to discuss this. We were willing to pay more for their product to get their advertised 0.05 degree accuracy. Right now, though, I can't say we'd recommend their product.
