GetAngle works fine alone but "hangs" up when embedded in other sketch

[drbrodie]

Using the GetAngle code I have no problems but when the same code is embedded in a much larger sketch which calls mpu.update about every 12 ms the program freezes after a minute +-. Does mpu.update need to be called more frequently? Can you suggest anything else which might be happening?

Dear drbrodie,

Are the angular values diverging? It could be a memory overflow.
Clean calibration might be needed to avoid gyroscopic drift, but I am not completely sure this is your issue.

Kind regards,

Romain

Romain, Thanks for your reply. It is not that the angles are diverging, it is that the MPU6050 freezes up, halting the program into which it is embedded. I changed to the Adafruit library but the problem continues to occur although not as often. This seems to be happening to others as well. I am changing to the BNO055 instead of the MPU6050 with which I have had no such problems in the past. Thanks for your effort.
