    Hi Peter - the operating range is roughly 160-180 degrees. You need to keep the neodymium magnets as close to the sensor as possible in order to get the best result.

    The Teensy 3.0 offers either 13 or 16 bit resolution, I'm not completely sure which, on its fourteen analogue inputs, for $27. And it can be configured to act as a joystick.
