Hello, I am a new Phantom owner and I'm having a problem calibrating my compass. I have downloaded all the newest naza software and firmware updates, and I have imported the default configuration perameters. The IMU has been advanced calibrated. According to the DJI videos on their website, the X, Y, Z values should be in the -300 to 300 range and the Mod value should be around 1600. When I plug the Phantom to the Naza software, all my X, Y, Z values are all between -20 to 20 range. The Mod value hovers around 1800, so I guess the Mod value is ok. Just my X, Y, and Z values all seem low. I have tried doing the compass calibration many times. Each time, I get the constant red flashes showing compass error. I have also tried doing this outside, and I get the same result. I have tried using the waiving of the magnet around the compass to reset it, as demonstrated on the dji website. Yes, when I waive the magnet around the compass, the readings go way out of whack. However, each time i remove the magnet, all of the X, Y, or Z values return to the -20 to 20 range. These values seem low to me.
Can anyone please help? I really want to fly my Phantom for the first time but not till I know it's correctly calibrated.
Thanks for any advice.
