Methods, apparatus, and systems for detecting and compensating for yaw orientation error or misalignment of an IMU in a vehicle navigation system. Acceleration measurements available from the IMU can be used for fast, reliable, and compact estimation of alignment error whether or not the IMU and fixed-body frames share an origin or not. The detection can be included in a navigation solution for guidance and control systems of a vehicle without having to utilize other measurements such as GPS.
