You don’t need to change anything. Just follow the instructions. Click on the link for the wiki and the forum blog post.
That step will to the temp compensation for the IMUs. It turns on the calibration routine. Once you set it then put the drone in the fridge for a hour then plug it in to USB and don’t let it move at all.
@Allister The next version of the software will even automatically open the documentation in a web browser in the background.
That will reduce the excuses of the users to not read the documentation, although it is clearly there in front of their noses and they choose to ignore point number 1:
I deserved that… lol
Here is the new version that automatically opens the relevant documentation in a browser window.
Ok, I went through all the documentation, re-did the Methodic Configurator, checked again everything you guys mentioned, did some little battery monitor tweaks to rid pre-arm errors and…It fixed all the problems and I just did my first maiden flight with no errors or issues. THANK you seriously. I really really appreciate all your help! Beers on me!
Send the files anyway so that I can add it as a template in the software for the next newb that has a frame similar to yours.
Gladly!

That is a nice file, but I need a .zip with all the files in the ardupilot methodic configurator vehicle directory. Including a vehicle.jpg file.
Look closer the path exists and the files are there.
You need to manually add a vehicle.jpg file to that path yourself, and after that .zip it all.
Any progress on this?
Still working on it. Haven’t forgot.
I feel really dumb. I still cannot find this file path.
Copy the path directly and paste it in windows explorer
I meant “Windows (file) Explorer” Not “microsoft edge (browser)”
And I meant the location field, not the search field:
Ah ok I will do that now
I tried to compress it to a small enough file size but I cant. Here is a drive link anyone can access:
