I bought a 10 DOF IMU from China. As expected, English documentation isn't great, but I did manage to find the source code to interface with it.
Problem is, I don't understand if it is/isn't a library, and if it is, how to install it.
I've included the same zip file I found with the product, and I would love your input.
Thanks

Please post a link to where you bought the IMU from. Use the chain links icon on the toolbar to make the URL clickable.
Does it have 3 chips on it?
a pressure sensor
a magnetometer
a gyro and accelerometer
The Gyro and Accelerometer is the MPU6050
if it has just 2 chips then the gyro and accelerometer magnometer is the MPU9250
put the MPU6050 files in the libraries folder in your sketch folder
open the Arduino IDE
open the MPU6050_Latest_code.ino
see if it can talk to the gyro accelerometer on your board

I would prefer to have access to the gyrometer, accelerometer, barometer and compass if possible.
Anyway, it appears I did submit the wrong code files, as I actually have version C of the model. Code setup appears similar though.
The page with everything is here.

Your breakout board has 2 chips, the barometer and the gyro accelerometer compass mpu9255. The mpu9255 has a built in microprocessor that can handle digital motion processing! Internally the mpu9055 has a compass attached to the internal mpu6050's secondary i2c bus. Using the mpu6050 library you can access the compass in the same way you would if they were separate chips. Confusing 
I'll try to help more when I get to my computer.

MPU-9255Cal.ino is for getting calibration offsets for the mpu9055 I created this from the documentation and some example sketches
The rest allow for getting all the values from the gyro accel and compass

Haven't played with this coed in a while but last time I did it worked:)
let me know if you have any questions
