First flight I did not have multi-flight engagedA compass error will happen from time to time.. When this happens you DO NOT want to engaged RTH. You would want to stop and hover in ATTI and wait for the error to clear.
With my P2v+ i would calibrate maybe 1 out of 10 flights. if it was from a previous location I never would. I thought I would be more proactive with the P3. annnnnnnd yeah...Guys -
Unless you travel some distance from the location you did the last compass calibration, It's not required before each flight... IMHO, this could cause more issues than prevent.

I have been on here everyday for a while as im new to Phantoms so the app disconnects are somewhat connected to the App update. You should expect a 1.2.0 by next (update every 2 weeks as per DJI) I am pretty sure they know about the compass issue if it is related to firmware. there is a reason DJI says to recalibrate the compass every new location, I recalibrate it if i fly 10 feet away from my previous flight due to the sensitive nature of the compass. it takes 30 seconds.
is there a way to flush compass caching after every few flights so it recalibrates anew rather than interact with older data?
Good to know. I wish the manual had these pearls of wisdom.A compass error will happen from time to time.. When this happens you DO NOT want to engaged RTH. You would want to stop and hover in ATTI and wait for the error to clear.
First flight I did not have multi-flight engaged
Second flight it made no difference, it had a mind of its own
Could you define "Some Distance"? Like a couple miles, 10 miles, 100 miles?
so if I am say 10-20 miles between sites I really don't need to calibrate the compass, thanks I was just curiousMore than 100 miles for me..

NO wind, calm evening, video that I will post will show more. FPresumably return to home would not work until GPS was restored, while flicking between modes it was heading off to your left - was that the wind direction and was it a heavy wind or was that it doing it all by itself?

Yea get the video from director and post it. Very interested to see this.
I notice the first error thrown was the dreaded sonic sensor error, im guessing VPS was on at the time of the crash, and over water again.
