    Brendan try a battery swap if you aren't seeing ANY lights on the MoVI if you haven't done so already. Check cable attachments. Shoot an email to support@freeflysystems.com as they are still in the office.

    Brendan, make sure IMU cable is good.. Change it out to see if it that helps.

    Motion booting relaxes the need for a super stable position during initialization. It will also keep trying to initialize until it gets a stable enough moment to boot vs with MB off it will only try for a few seconds. In your case it may be better to just initialize on land and use the kill switch on the remote to save battery in transit.
