Reading IMU Values

Hi, Firstly, Thank you for your work, it’s really nice. secondly, I have a mambo (AIRBORNE Night drone), and I’m trying to read IMU Values while it’s moving, I’ve started with reading Speed_x, Speed_y, and Speed_z … As it’s shown below… but I got zeros value ` from Mambo import Mambo t=0 mamboAddr = “e0:14:bc:d0:3d:a1” mambo = Mambo(mamboAddr, use_wifi=False)

print(“trying to connect”) success = mambo.connect(num_retries=3) print(“connected: %s” % success)

if (success):

print("sleeping")
mambo.smart_sleep(2)
mambo.ask_for_state_update()
mambo.smart_sleep(2)

print("taking off!")
mambo.safe_takeoff(5)

while(t<8):

    print("speed_x state is %s" % mambo.sensors.speed_x)
    
    
    print("speed_y state is %s" % mambo.sensors.speed_y)

    
    print("speed_z state is %s" % mambo.sensors.speed_z)


    print("battery %s" % mambo.sensors.battery)

    
    print("Flying direct: going forward (positive pitch)")
    mambo.fly_direct(roll=0, pitch=50, yaw=0, vertical_movement=0, duration=1)



    print("Flying direct: going backwards (negative pitch)")
    mambo.fly_direct(roll=0, pitch=-50, yaw=0, vertical_movement=0, duration=1)

    
    print("ask_for_state_update")
    mambo.ask_for_state_update()

    t=t+1

print("landing")
mambo.safe_land(5)
mambo.smart_sleep(5)

print("disconnect")
mambo.disconnect()`

I thought the cause is the sequent of code, So I have tried to make two threads, One of them to pilot and the other to update sensors and read it. but it doesn’t work. I hope BLE give me the Possibility to read IMU Values.
I will be grateful for any ideas. Thank you.

This is very odd. I just did a test run over BLE and it is sending speed_x for me. I’m running 3.0.17 for the firmware though so you need to update.

You shouldn’t have to ask for the state update in your loop either. It comes automatically. The state update just updates the non-regular stuff (like ids)
