Compasses Inconsistence

So i am using Two compasses one Here 3 and a Holybro Micro M8N. The priority is set for the Here 3 and then micro M8N both the compasses are mounted on a mast and the orientation is also correct after calibrating the compasses i got compasses inconsistent error but after i disabled the Mirco M8N the problem was solved.

Should wait for a few mins before starting the calibration so both compasses get a good lock or it’s a different issue?

Calibrate with the Magfit utility in MAVExplorer.

Page down to the MAVExplorer section. The easieist way to load a log file it to place a shortcut on your desktop and drop the .bin file on top of it.

If that doesn’t help disable the compass in the M8N.

I have installed the MAVExplorer do i have to upload the logs after the compass calibration to fine-tune the compasses?

i am confused about which logs i should consider uploading will the logs where i have to disable compass 2 (M8N) will work?

I Tried it i am uploading the log and the new values I got pls have a look

You need to make a flight for this. AltHold, Loiter but hover around make a lot of yaw commands and if you want to include the Motor comp make throttle changes. It’s obvious right? Make a lot of changes. Then use that log and cut the center out of it discarding take off and landing.
