IMU Missed Messages

[Rob Dog]

I just got a used Mavic 2 Pro and I am having odd msgs. I am trying to use my Samsung Tablet. I have read through most of the posts but m issue seems a little different. Here is what it is doing..... 1. If I am near our house, I get a "Magnetic Interference" warning. I also get a note about the IMU saying to "Restart Aircraft". I restarted the drone several times with no change. I found one suggestion to recalibrate the IMU which I did. 2. I decided to try using a iPhone which I use for my Mini and got away from the house and IT WORKED!!! I flew for about 15 minutes with no issues. Went back out this afternoon and it started giving me IMU errors again.... Tried both devices and no luck - even iPhone gave me IMU error. Waited about 2 hours and then it worked using the iPhone again! I don't get it. Any ideas??? Thanks in advance.

The IMU is a collection of sensors and changing the phone won't do anything to fix a problem with the IMU.
It sounds like you may have an intermittent IMU problem and there won't be any easy fix.
The magnetic interference warning is the compass doing its job and telling you that it's close to steel or live electrical cables.
That's common and normal in a house.

Thanks for the reply!!! Do you think it could have been damaged being shipped?

Not related to the info provided.
Move the drone until you don’t get the warnings. Then restart.
