Sensors Overview
Check every measurement on this screen first
Summarises the key readings of the onboard 6-axis IMU and temperature sensor: three-axis acceleration, gyro angular rate, the vector magnitude at rest and the chip temperature. At rest the magnitude should stay at exactly 1 g β the fastest way to tell whether the sensor is working.
This page is the entry point and overview for the acceleration, attitude and motion-path pages: confirm the data is sane here, then go into a specific page for detailed analysis.
On-screen interface
A recreation of this page on the 2.41-inch AMOLED display (600 Γ 450). Actual interaction and layout follow the latest firmware.
Key capabilities
Three axes side by side
X / Y / Z acceleration on one screen with colour-coded distinction.
Vector self-check
At rest the magnitude stays 1.00 g; any deviation points to calibration or soldering issues.
Temperature on the same screen
Chip temperature next to attitude data to judge thermal drift effects.
High sample rate
114 Hz by default, balancing smoothness and power draw.
Technical specs
Typical scenarios
Power-on self-check
Confirm the sensor is online and the magnitude is correct, ruling out hardware faults.
Thermal drift observation
Run for a long time and watch how rising temperature affects bias.
