DJI Mavic Pro - IMU Calibration - How to Calibrate the IMU

Written By The Introvert Speaks on Wednesday, Aug 09, 2017 | 08:12 AM

 
Today we are going to be talking about the DJI Mavic Pro. More specifically the IMU calibration of the Mavic. Now that we have opened up the IMU sensor screen we can select the option to calibrate IMU about three quarters of the way down the screen. Now, we have finally entered the IMU calibration. The initial pop up gives you the list of requirements needed to successfully perform the calibration. Ie Dismount Propellers first, Follow the instruction to calibrate. Do not move the aircraft unless to overturn the aircraft as indicated, and ensure the aircraft powered on. Do not start the motor. This process doesn’t take long but it is wise to do this on a full battery to ensure power remains on the Mavic the whole time. The first orientation of calibration is the normal flat and level stance the Mavic would have in the transport position. The calibration will take a few seconds and there are 2 ways you’ll be able to tell once that particular orientation is complete. The first is the screen on the phone or tablet, the Mavic will rotate orientation in the app to show the next position to place the Mavic for calibration. The second is by the lights on the Mavic. During calibration the lights on the Mavic are solid yellow and once it is complete the back led lights rapidly flash green to indicate it’s ready for a position change. There are 5 rotations to be performed. Flat, on its sides (both directions), vertical (nose up), and upside down. Once these have been complete the calibration process is complete and the app asks you to restart the Mavic. And just like that, the IMU calibration is over quickly and painlessly. If you run into any type of hang-ups don’t worry. Reset and try again. If it continues to fail, go over all settings and verify there’s no severe angle or interference around and if all else fails, go ahead and contact DJI support.
