I have spent the last few days trying to debug on why I get "MPU6050 connection fail" with both WriteInstinct.ino and Nybble.ino. I have not been able to calibrate the servos. The I2C switch is set to "Ar" and I have tested the MPU with this code to make sure it working and I get a bunch of scrolling negative numbers that change when ever I rotate the PCB. I don't know if this is a false positive or not, because they don's seem to be rotational angle numbers [what range of numbers should I be getting?] Re-loading the libraries does nothing. I don't know if this is a hardware problem or software. Looking at the "WriteInstinct.ino" code, it seems that setting the MPU to High [line 170, "MPU6050 mpu(0x68)" is the problem? not sure. The reason why i say this is because I ran the i2C_scanner in order to see what connected devices were using the i2c addresses. My output shows that there is one device using 0x68, but i don't know if its the MPU5060 or not. Also, commenting out the do-while-loop from line 264 in the newest "Nybble.ino" code does nothing when it comes to initializing the MPU6050. Any help or set of instructions on how to detect that the MPU6050 is working properly will be appreciated in order to fix this problem. Screencaps: WritingInstinct: MPUTest: Trying to calibrate the servos (they have yet to be calibrated) MPUtest: (Moving PCB, number change but hey are negative and very large) i2C scanner: Address 0x68 is being used, but i can't confirm that it pertains to the MPU? Nybble.ino: MPU failed initiation, when uploading the Nybble.ino Will it be possible to get a step by step video on how exactly one calibrates the servos alone. I know that you have a video on Youtube, but an updated would be appreciated, one that includes the fix for those who have problems with the MPU. Thank you.

Hello, Thank you for shipping Nybble. I received the package around January 19th but i didn't had the time to build it. Today, i finally  had time to work on it and i ended up building most of the body and the head and it was fun, but when it came to install the Nyboard, i noticed that one of the "Capacitors" labled C3 [you can see it on the pictures] came off. I tried  to solder it back to the board but it would not stick? No matter how i did it. Any advice on how to fix it? I tried powering the board on  but it would not power on. I was so excited to program Nybble but this put me on hold?  :( How  would i go in order to fix this issue? if nothing works, would i be able to get a replacement for the board? Thank you for your time and consideration. Here are some of the pictures so you can see the problem.
