Finally got the weather to fly today after the winter. Everything charged. Removed gimbal lock and extended the props, all ready for flight. After power up and connection, updated the database. Got a message to calibrate the imu. Started calibration, folded arms and set on a flat surface, but had it facing away from me instead of broadside to left. After long delay, got imu #1 error -50. Tried powering off drone and restarting, restarting remote controller, and combinations of these actions. Tried not setting drone down until that instruction to place on a flat surface. Nothing worked, and I got -50 every time. After putting everything away, had the thought: could the non-broadside position of the drone be the cause? Or do I have a more serious problem?
