Just finished building a Holybro x650 with PX4 v1.16.1 running on a Pixhawk 6x. Using a USB cable I can see all the params, change them, and calibrate the RC transmitter. I even can spin the motors with the main battery using actuator setup. Using telemetry I can load the params. Everything seems to work, except that the QGC attitude graphic does not change when I move the drone in three axes. Also I can’t arm it. It seems that the telemetry data does everything except the IMU. Is there anything I missed? I’ve been using Pixhawks and PX4 for 8 years and never saw anything like this. Maybe its a simple fix. Can anyone shed light on this? Thanks Joe ---

Well, this one is solved. As I kept working with params and powering up and down, the problem was still there. So I did a calibration and voila, everything worked. I should have done that earlier, but the summary page showed green for all the sensors, so I assumed I could power up the motors. No reply needed. Joe ---
