Misson planner crashes when i try to calibrate the compass

Hi all,

Every time I try to calibrate the compass, the Mission Planner crashes 2 seconds after pushing live calibration.

Can anybody help?

Best regards

@Flilek,
It would be nice if you would state what version of Mission Planner you are using. Ver 1.3.24 is the latest.

Hi all,

I use the latest version of Mission Planner. (I downloaded it last week from the site).
I’m a Mac user and use Windows XP in a virtual Machine.
No possibility to update drivers.

Will try to install Mission Planner on a real PC.

Best Regards

Hi All,

After installing Mission Planner on a PC (WIN7), everything could be calibrated. Even now, I am able to unlock the motors.

This shows maybe the limits of a virtual machine.

In all case, the postings helped me to solve my problem.

Thanks a lot
