Today when I was out to do some flying, I noticed something about the IMU that I have not seen or thought of before.

  

  

When putting on the power to the drone, I check the IMU, compass and the direction of the drone to where the arrow is on the map and that they align. Everything showed fine and I started the prop’s and took off. I left that screen on for the IMU by mistake and then saw that there was no reading from the IMU any more. Did some testing and found that the IMU reading disappeared as soon as I started the prop’s.

  

  Is this normal, that when you start the prop’s, the IMU reading disappears?

Can you post a set of before and after screen captures?

Hello there kyalami. Thank you for reaching out and for sharing these information with us. Kindly please post a sample screenshot showing the issue for us to see and can assist? Thank you.

Hi,

Please find screen shot when drone is turned on and on the ground. N o motors running.



Here is a screen shot when flying.



I just noticed today that when motors are on or I am flying, it says "MOVING" and the green line is gone. Could it be so, that when the drones motors are on and you are flying, that the IMU date can not be shown?

Great, thanks.
They disappear when I start the motors on my M2Z too. They reappear when the motors are stopped.
I will check a Pro later.

It does show you at the bottom . “In Use” and all you see is a dot to confirm its working correctly .

Yes, thanks for your reply, that's right. I saw this at the bottom also, as well as the little dot in front of the ACC0, but the green line was not there any more. Just wanted to check this, as I have never thought of this before. Today I as out flying again and the drone behaves normal as usaul.
