Hi, I have a Mavic Air. After the last flight, all was good, and I did not use it for several months. Yesterday, I tried to flight and the DJI app asks me to do IMU calibration which gives me CODE ERROR 13 after long minutes of wait. I tried IMU calibration in a low-temperature room, outside, inside. I really don't know what to do.

Hi there, thank you for reaching out. We would like to know some specific details with you. Thanks.

1. Your device model
2. The temperature at that time
3. Have you tried to refresh the firmware and re-calibrate again?

Hi, I have the same problem:
-) DJI Mavic Air 1 not used for several months - bat empty
-) Charged bat and tried to fly -> IMU Calibration required
-) Calib fails with Error 13 outside (27°C) and inside (18°C)
-) Updated Firmware to latest Version 1.0.1.0
-) Waited 1 hour to cool down the drone

-) Calib still fails with Error 13 inside (18°C) and outside (27°C)

Anyone solved this problem?  This vid
[ Youtube: How to fix Main controller data error Dji Mavic Air/IMU calibration error Fix/Drone data error fix ]
seems to have a solution, but as it involves tearing apart the whole drone, I would like to avoid this.

Hello, there. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Please restart the aircraft, and place the aircraft on a horizontal plate to calibrate IMU.
If the calibration fails multiple times, you are advised to send the aircraft back for inspection and repair.
