IMU Selection Guide: 6 Metrics That Actually Determine Flight Controller Performance (2026)
Don’t be fooled by flashy IMU datasheets. The 6 metrics that truly matter: noise density (μg/√Hz), bias stability (°/hr), temperature drift (°/s/℃), range, bandwidth (≥1kHz), and post-shock bias change. Includes field-tested thresholds, 3 real failure cases (¥800,000 loss), and a printable selection checklist for industrial drone flight controllers.
