Calibrating the IMU

[LoneDrone]

Hi folks,

Upgraded my firmware and now calibrating the IMU. Everything went fine except for one value according to the Quick User guide.

Gyroscope = all values are 0.00. Ok there.
Acceleration = X is 0; Y is 0; Z is (-)1.00; Manual says slight variations from 0.00 is ok. Is (-)1.00 on Z slight?
Compass = Mod is 1525; Which manual states between 1400 and 1600. Ok there.

Gimbal cal went fine.

Thoughts on the Z reading?
Thanks.

Quick question, I flashed the new firmware for my P3P last night and tonight I bound the controller, calibrated the gimbal and controller. I wanted to do an IMU calibration but couldn't find an option on the DJI go app to do it. In the video, the app looks different. Any ideas where I can find it?

Go to "Main Controller Settings" --> "Advanced Settings" --> "Sensors" --> "IMU Calibration".

If you still cant find the IMU values, on android with Go 3.1.3 version, I found mine :-

1. Tap Quadcopter symbol top (Next to home)
2. Advanced settings
3. Sensors state.
