Just some background....
When some Drones were updated from 1.6.8 to 1.7.9 they got "sensor errors"... (IMU & compass) So DJI released 1.7.94 to fix them..
So....I have just found your ... Solution???
It was simple??
But it has to be done in this order..
Assuming you're still at 1.8.1..
If you are 1.8.1 + debug it first...
Then...
Downgrade to 1.7.9.. Get the error... Restart Still Sensor error...

Rerun F/w 1.7.9 with debug... Still Sensor error...Cal the Imu (yep)... still get the error... :(

Update with 1.7.94 No more error?? :)
Recal Imu ;)
This is the setups I just took to fix it for a member of my group...
So I am not Sure if the first IMU cal was anything more... then a waste of time...

It seems that the Sensor errors comes back after 1.7.94 downgrade?? and is not fixed again with 1.5.75.. So here are some suggestions to try to get to 1.5.7 when you get Erorrs on 1.7.9..
Some have used the Debug with a downgrade version ...
Meaning while you have 1.7.94 no erorrs.
(1) put 1.5.7 and debug on the sd card.. and downgrade like that..
(2) skip 1.6.8... D/G 1.7.94 > 1.5.7.. get error?
(3) debug 1.7.94 > 1.6.8 error?
(4) debug 1.7.94 then > 1.5.7 error?
Attempt this only if your getting Sensor Erorrs on 1.7.9..
