While helping out a local area team, I discovered that some early rev gyro PCBs with a silkscreen error were shipped with the kits. Consider yourself warned - if you're trying to read the gyro output with an analog module and it doesn't seem to work, try measuring the PCB's "Temp" output inside. One of the early revs had "Rate" and "Temp" mistakenly swapped on the silkscreen. If your board isn't labeled as in the gyro schematic in the link below, you've got an early rev with swapped labels.
