Intermittent IMU problem
#1
Hi,

Today I connected my IMU to the Pi Zero W, and watched the heading on the web interface.  I was guessing that the heading would change with rotating the IMU around the Z axis (as indicated on the board) but the numbers aren't making much sense.

I logged into the Pi, and ran (cd pypilot/pypilot; python boat_imu.py).  Some of the time I'm getting numbers, and some of the time the software thinks the IMU has disappeared.  This happens in a loop, ie, numbers then a disconnect.

   

Any ideas?  (I wired 1-1, 2-9, 3-5, 4-3.  Wires are short and directly soldered)
