Welcome to the forum!
Can you give some more details about the IMU? Why do you need a new one? I'm not an expert but if I remember correctly the IMU is soldered to the motherboard. If your IMU is just stuck you may be able to get it unstuck but tapping or banging it with the head of a screw driver.
More details will help troubleshoot your problem.

Its not soldered, it's inside that springy black box on top of the mb. Easy to replace. Get a 2nd hand motherboard (search Aliexpress for "phantom 3 board", lots of them there.
Hardest part would be to disadsemble the drone body without breaking all the little clips
Good luck
I have this problem as well; Don't be afraid to open it (phantom 3) up, its easy. Do you want to fly it again? If you do, but decide to not open it yourself, you next option is to pay someone a price that will probably be way more than what its worth.Its not soldered, it's inside that springy black box on top of the mb.

*There's a really good video on youtube, and the guy guides you through each step needed to remove the top shell, then steps for getting to the IMU to tap on it in hopes of freeing the pendulum (if its stuck), and closing everything back up.
Just go on youtube and search for "Phantom IMU Repair" and the name of the channel is "iRepairMD Youtube". His videos are pretty thorough.
I went through the steps of trying to free the pendulum, but it didn't work for me, so now I'm searching for a P3 Standard being sold "For Parts" and at a cheap price.
Open it up man, that's how we learn;
Good Luck
