    callibration trouble

    Heres one, I had my mavic 2 pro out yesterday, got a compass error which is my first, nothing in my pockets but couldn’t calibrate the aircraft. Then my phone rang which was in the controller.

    Installed Strobe Lights on Mavic Pro

    Think I would tend to agree with that one. Most folks have better things to do with there time. Anyways part of your flight manual should be checking and observing your local area, especially for lunatics with shotguns lol

    callibration trouble

    Yes I would agree with you its the item that is causing the interference, the interference then causes calibration error at takeoff that is different after takeoff.

    callibration trouble

    Yep that would be enough to knock out the calibration. If you ever see a old ships compass at a boat fair or boot sale grab it, even a small handheld one, move your leatherman over or near the compass, if it moves the needle thats the bug. Good luck

    Installed Strobe Lights on Mavic Pro

    Will probably have a red flashing led at the centre rear underneath and a white strobe at the tail end centre rear. Front strobes on the outer legs but shielded from forward the forward area so as not to interfere with the camera

    If it has been magnetised then very likely. Try to recalibrate it minus your leatherman being nearby

    callibration trouble

    Stay well clear of magnetic and metal sources. Also rfi from electrics wifi or bluetooth can cause interference if close enough. Apple watches especially

    Installed Strobe Lights on Mavic Pro

    Hi As a pilot with a professional licence and used to flying through cloud on takeoff’s and landings, here is something to think about. If you adopt the placement and strategies as in commercial aircraft where the red and green nave lights are static but only visible to a fixed angle and fit...
