I don't see anything. Is the light supposed to light up on the cord because I don't see any light.

It shows nothing when pugged in. It flashes blue if datatransfer from drone to PC is going on.
Compass in the leg was at Blade 350QX. Q500 has the compass in the nose. This is one of the both antennas. It's OK so as it is.
The drone only did all this when I turned it on it's side holding it. Now I got it in binding mode
Now it's shows this so I'm so confused here. It all goes normal it I turn drone on on it's side
The post you replied to is for an H520. It was in a different thread in the H520 area of the Forum. The H520 is not arranged the same as a Q500. I moved the post here to stay with the subject a little better.
The accelerometer in the H520 is a plug-in module. There is no plug-in connector associated with the accelerometer in the Q500. On the Q500 the accelerometer is part of the IMU chip, soldered onto the main board. Replacing the chip requires a high level of soldering experience and a soldering rework station.
This is becoming more costly than the price of a new drone.
You mentioned you recently purchased the drone. Can you get a refund from the seller?
No I wish. But if I turn it on it's side everything goes normal and I don't understand what is going on with it
I really don't want to have to buy more for it but if I have to I guess I would. Already got a new remote control for it coming
Probably not. But you could step outside with it to find out.
The accelerometer is out of cal, but not yet so bad it can't be tricked into allowing a start.
This is the first time I have heard of a drone IMU being in this condition. I don't know the effect it will have. You may be able to get a ready signal, do calibrations and maybe even fly. But the flights are going to be unpredictable. It may fly out of control. And it will eventually fail too far for the trick to work.
The issue seems at least similar to the "45 degree angle" trick to get a failing CGo2 camera to start when the camera IMU is failing. @h-elsner would be a better source to predict the effects generated by this condition.
One on blue flashing lights I can put it back flat then tilt forward to go to binding and all and on laptop everything checked right
