like it says on a flat surface. watch youtube videos so i know iam doing it right. but the message appears evertime i havent used it for some hours.

if i just turn it on and off after it goes to the green state its fine and says ready to go.

next day the same, need a calibration or i just wait couple of minutes untill its green. its always acc1 ,nothing else

It sounds like it turns to green after it warms up ---- Some say it should be at room temperature
and the calibration procedure should be completed B4 the Mavics fan kicks on ?
If you did a calibration when the Mavic was hot the Mavic will remember, when you go to Recalibrate the
calibration sequence does not start till the temperature is reached to the prior calibration

I don't see it saying you need a IMU calibration ---  Yellow means GOOD The ACC is meaning it is an accelerometer --- your still OK to fly with that ACC Value
It's not a good idea to do IMU calibrations if you did not crash or the system is not calling for it

I just looked at your startup video of the STATUS page again and it said IMU --- NORMAL
then it went to the Maine screen the way it's suppose to -- you went into the IMU values page
and the reading was yellow = GOOD
I don't understand what your trying to do ?????????????

yes i know. what i mean is that i wanne show how the imu values keeps going down. i know at this time i recorded it says the imu is normal but i recorded this after i turned off and on so the numbers have gone down a bit from around 0.0062.

It's normal for the Values to increase and decrease

Don't do a calibration now --- you already had it powered up ??????????
I think your playing to much with the IMU and this is your outcome --- it's your
Mavic system you can do what you want with it but don't create your on problems
then ask for help because you want your IMU to read all Green
Put it outside for a half an hour then take it in and try to Recalibrate the IMU
