Compass Turn Rate Error - Healthy Drones

Hi - I had this error after uploading my flight to Healthy Drones. Should I just do a recal? Was flying in the same area I always fly.

I dont see an issue with the heathydrones report.

Compass error on the sensor tab:

Found rate of change in the compass of 30 degrees or more per 0.1 seconds.
That's about a 90 degree turn in a third of a second, which is not normal.

oh that - wouldnt worry about it if you didnt notice anything weirdness in flight. I get those too from time to time. typically when I hover and slowly turn one way or the other.

Really? Seems concerning to me...

OK, be concerned (I was the first time I saw it). We I saw it, it was only in the logs and I noticed nothing in flight. Im thinking something messed with the compass in air (power flux, transformer, space monkeys). Since it happens mostly in the same area when I am mostly hovering, and I only saw it three or four times over 20-30 flights - it didnt concern me.

Calibrate the compass again and fly. If it aint repeatable for you I wouldnt worry. If it is repeatable but only happens in the same area, I would avoid that area if it bothers ya.
