1. A method for rebuilding an inertial measurement unit, said method comprising:
- selecting a first subassembly having one or more inertial sensors mounted therein, the first subassembly having a first set of connectors, the one or more inertial sensors having previously calibrated settings;
selecting a second subassembly having support electronics for processing signals originating from the one or more inertial sensors, the second subassembly having a second set of connectors configured to complementarily engage the first set of connectors;
electronically de-coupling the first subassembly from the second subassembly by disengaging the first and second sets of connectors; and
maintaining a position of the one or more inertial sensors with respect to the first subassembly, while disengaging the first and second sets of connectors.
