Hello, I got my 3DR external compass yesterday and I installed
Changed the 5v to 3v on the compass, cut the line on the board for the on-board compass SDA and when I am at the HUD display of the mission planner and I move the external compass around the moves with the compass but if I keep the external compass still and move the APM left and right the hud also moves around, is this normal or did I miss something I am thru the docs over and over. When I mounted the apm and the compass on the frame and turn the quad to the left the compass goes left for a few degrees and then it started moving to right while compass is moving left, is this just a orientation and declination issue (I know I haven’t really spent time into tuning but I don’t want to start tuning it if what I described above is wrong)?
Also is it a good idea to mount the compass on valcro (I see it vibrates a bit) or must it be tight to the frame?
Kind regards
Christiaan
