First problem is that I only received two in the package. Only needing one of them, I didn't think It was too big of a deal. But, after testing both of them, I found that neither of them worked at all. I would say after reading all of the reviews, I shouldn't have been surprised that both of the sensors failed. Not worth the money, I would go with a different model IMU If you can afford them. It's a shame that this is the model that everyone recommends for my project.Update: apparently, like others have stated, it's hit and miss with these things. I sent the package I received with only two that were DOA back and I received a new package with all three included. All three tested out perfectly fine. One thing I did notice was that the first package that only had two both looked like they had been MANUALLY repackaged individually. The replacement pack of three all looked like they were packaged from a factory. Just something to keep in mind if you open up a package and it looks like they are not perfectly packaged. They might have been repackaged and sent out to you after being returned because of an issue. Good stuff.Second update: I ordered another set of three and they all came as well and all three work. Take from this what you will. Not terrible. Changed my rating.

The unit that worked was just fine, but two out of three didn't appear to work at all (not even showing up on an I2C bus scan). The fact that the third worked perfectly indicates that it wasn't a connection or software issue, so it seems like they are just not very well made.

The ones that work work great, but out of 12 IMUs I ordered, 6 were dead on arrival. Two packs of three were completely dead and 2 packs of three all worked. It’s a Russian roulette, especially if you only order one pack.
