    Hello folks, I have recently crashed my P3P, and realized that the compass connector has fell off from the motherboard, and it peeled one pad from the motherboard. I am thinking to find a solution for reconnecting compass to the board, but would like to know if there is any other potential...

    My P3P will not hover after crash. IMU/compass has been recalibrated several times HELP before I just dump it!

    So there was this very cool shelf cloud near my house. I went up just straight and got a fairly decent picture of it, but for one reason or another, I landed and then thought I would go back up and get video. Well, this was one fast-moving storm and the next thing you know my P3P was out of my...

    A Fix For a Broke Compass Connector

    Hi all, I have a broken compass Connector. It is totally broke off the Main board. I do not have it or the compass wire. Is there a way to fix it inexpensively? I can solder well, if I know what I need and what the pinout is.

    Compass Mod Values on P4A using Litchi?

    So, I feel foolish. I went to fly my drone and got my very first calibrate compass warning. I tried to do it three times, but it was not working. DUH! Then I realized I was standing on a bridge, probably made up of huge amounts of steel under all that cement. Dumb. So I have since...

    P4P v2 compass issue

    I've had the P4p v2 for two weeks. And it's flown really well. Shot 6 jobs already. It's so stable. When I need to do a tracking shot to the side, it goes exactly in line. No drifting. Mostly. But today after maybe 20 flights, when I started up, the compass symbol was facing the opposite...

    Calibration

    How often does the compass need to be calibrated? I'm a new pilot. I've flown my P4P only about four times. Flights have taken off in different locations around an area of about 10 square miles. But Go4 app has never requested a compass calibration; not even the first time. I'm just scared...

    Calibrate compass in a saline

    I need to ask a question to the most experienced; I will soon have the opportunity to travel to a large expanse of salt mines in my country and it occurred to me that it could be the ideal place to calibrate the compass in an environment absolutely free of electromagnetic interference...

    P4 Compass Error

    ’m having a problem with my p4 where whenever I take off after about a minute of air time my drone takes itself out of gps mode.

    Strange behavior at higher speed

    Hi everyone! I just got a Phantom 4 back from repair (had a crash due to a faulty battery). For some reason DJI sent me another one. Fine, except that after a few flights I'm experiencing a very strange behavior every time I get some speed. Let me try to explain what I see. You have one log...

    Compass Calibration

    I am a new P3 Standard pilot (two months) and find this forum to be extremely helpful in terms of providing help and information. In following several recent threads, I have repeatedly viewed the suggestion "not to calibrate your compass every flight". I am confused: If I change launch...

    GPS and Compass pinout

    Hi guys, I recently drowned my Phantom 3 Standard and it won't boot up now. I found out that I have to replace the main board and the FC (that little black box on top). I decided to make it a INav build instead. The only problem is that I can't find anywhere the GPS and Compass module pinout. I...

    Having trouble calibrating the compass

    I've had a good read, am stood miles from any metals, the controller, other objects, in an open field that is just mud. I'm wearing zero metal - I'd be naked if I tried any harder! I've successfully calibrated several P4P's, an Inspire 1, a Mavic Pro all in this exact spot. The P3S just...
