I have had my MP for about 2 months - the below began about a month ago but it took a while for it to be 100% recreateable - now it happens every time...


In short, the "MP Direction Arrow" (MPDA) can be 90-180 degrees off of actual craft direction - most/all indicators start out right but quickly get out-of-sync. (Yes, I've recalibrated the compass/es countless time - more details in the YouTube below)


Check out this YouTube - in the description, click on "see more" and it will take you to the actual points in the clip but essentially the clip is full of the same...




Is this a setting issue on my part or are the compasses going?

(no crashes; countless compass recalibrations, no Magnetic Interference or other errors...)
