GY-521 is a sensor board which has a voltage regulator. When using 3.3V to the VCC the resulting voltage (after the onboard voltage regulator) might be too low for a good working I2C bus. It is preferred to apply 5V to the VCC pin of the sensor board.

mpu 6050 accelerometer value gives positive and negative values for one movement?
I am using an arduino uno, a gy-521 mpu 6050 and the Jeff Rowberg library. While the code is perfect the results are less than desirable. I am using the RealAccel option but when I move the accelerometer to the right the data is first correctly…
