Accelerometer/gyroscope for BBB? (MPU-6050)

Hello everyone,

Im building a quadrotor for an engineering project, I am using a BBB. I have some hardware available on hand and was looking to see if it could be used with the BBB. I will have a few posts this one is just on the accelerometer/gyroscope.

this is the data sheet for it: http://invensense.com/mems/gyro/documents/PS-MPU-6000A-00v3.4.pdf

more specifically i will be using the MPU-6050.

please let me know about any additional info you need to make this determination, I’m still learning whats important to post and what is not (newbie, guilty)

thank you for your time,
Michael
