Matherp,
Have you tried the uart (S0 = 0, S1 = 1) interface on the BNO055 borads?
I have an application on some agricultural equipment where the sensor would be about 5m from the mite. Do you think it would work?Rob White

No - sorry. It seems to transmit in non-ascii so I didn't get round to trying to decode it
5m on I2C can be OK. I would set the speed down fairly low and use 1K2 pullups

It was in the details of Peters Post, but given it was a long post I thought it was easy to overlook.
Hope it helps.
If not the seemingly tireless Matherp will surely come to the rescue.

The excitement of that great application to have a play with from Matherp hid the obvious.

Yes, he is amazing. Now I have the Attitude Indicator, probably less than $100. I just need another $250,000 or so for a plane and flying lessons. Paul."It is better to be ignorant and ask a stupid question than to be plain Stupid and not ask at all"

Isn't that what the sprites and scrolling background extensions on the MMX were for... so you could write your own plane simulator
