Anybody know what causes "IMU Data Lost"

Can't seem to shake this issue on my new hex build.

It's a WKM on 5.16 (always been a solid fw for me).

The issue seems to happen when I start moving around laterally - not even that aggressively.

I've tried mounting the IMU with firm two-sided tape and also with a soft two-sided spongy material to reduce vibes.


Anybody know what things I should keep the IMU away from? Maybe I'm getting interference?


Thanks!

Current plan is to mount the IMU on velcro (good velcro - don't worry it's not going anywhere) and...

Dial up the GPS puck so that when I press forward the rig goes dead straight.

Well, for posterity, this seems to be my solution:

Moved the IMU away from the center (which was directly over the dist. board), and mounted with two strips of double-sided tape.

I tried the velcro thing, and it was NOT a good experience - lots of over-correcting, bit of a white-knuckle ride.

The two strips of double-sided tape seems to be a nice compromise of vibe reduction and firmness.
