IMU slow to calibrate

What is a normal amount of time to calibrate the IMU on the Mavic 2 pro?  Mine hangs at the third (45° orientation) for tens of minutes, I've usually given up and recycled everything off and on for a second, third, etc. try.  Green lights flash rapidly, message is "calibrating IMU, please wait".  I'm doing this inside our home, second floor close to windows, maybe I'll try the moves outside.  Suggestions?  Solutions?  Thanks,

It sounds like you're not placing the Mavic in the proper position on that step. Make sure you're performing the calibration like this (don't follow the photos in DJI GO):

You can't calibrate the IMU on the Mavic 2 Pro because it's an obsolete drone. Due to the integrated fish-eye Hasselblad lens that it comes with, the entire drone is a failure. Thank you for being an a test subject.

Yep, you’re not paying attention. 2nd and third steps are on the sides and if you’re not intently watching the screen, it’ll look similar in appearance. It will/would continue if you switched sides (even if it is the wrong one).

The Android go 4.3.0  has the incorrect pictures to put the drone in follow Msinger' s video as you run the go app, use the video sequence for each step, then you will get a successful calibration.

What made you calibrate the IMU to start with?
