I am running IMU recalibration on Spark, following steps as shown but the process "hangs" on step 2/6 - indicator lights are flashing green indicating "braking".   How can I get it to move on to the next step?

Flashing green means step completed, move to next step. Pay close attention to the pictures..

Just in case you are not aware - it is difficult to tell which direction to rotate the RC from the pictures.  That's why Haggi said that...

Buenas noches, tengo un pequeño problema con mi drone spark ya que no he podido volarlo porque me dice que debo calibrar el IMU pero cuando lo estoy haciendo me arroja este mensaje. Error de orientación automática error -50. Alguien sabe cómo solucionarlo. Gracias

the pictures are confusing, had the same problem of getting stuck on 2  On 2 you have to put Spark on it's side, thought that the picture showed turn it sideways. typical DJI's useless information, that user's have to correct on YouTube

Thanks but screen showed the process was incomplete and would not allow me to move to the next step.  The process seemed to be automatic - moving from task 1 to 2,

I had the same problem, because I was doing it wrong,  search on youtube  Spark IMU calibration. very clear instructions.

Step 1  Spark flat on the ground  step 2  on its side, check which way the DJI logo is at, step 3 on its other side step 4  straight up step 5 on its back, that's it simple

Hi, we do apologize for the inconvenience. I would recommend making sure that the firmware of your aircraft is updated. Do you encounter any error message about the IMU? You may try to connect your phone directly to the aircraft's wi-fi and do the calibration again to see if that would help. Please keep us posted on the latest progress. Thank you for continued support.
