So I may need some help or someone to help me understand what is going on with IMU. I have my mavic for a few months now with over 100+ plus flights and love it. Usually before i go out and fly i always make sure my IMU and compass are all set "IMU between 0.1 between 0.3" If not i calibrate it. Then i drive down the street not to far from my home "open desert"... and right before take off i look and see all my sensors are okay and notice my IMU jumped to 0.12 to 0.17... Its been doing that recently even when i did the IMU calibration at home on a flat surface. I do my compass calibration in open desert as well no metal objects at all.... So i was wondering if anyone else noticed this issue or maybe why its doing that?

I however still fly because the sensors are still in the green and fly's perfect and everything feels okay just wondering why all of sudden the IMU could change?

Thank you

I think you are worrying about it too much. I have never calibrated anything other than the compass and maybe the gimbal once some time ago. I just normally check the first page that comes up on the app which shows all the main items and if I am in the correct mode, everything is normal, good signal and good GPS then I fly.
