Hi guys.
New Mavic pro pilot here...migrating from the official DJI forums as it looks like this forum has a technical side to it, and I'm an electronics engineer by trade.
Bought a second hand MP and took it out for its first flight (by me anyway) and it performed beautifully.
Brought it home and updated the firmware to latest official via DJI assistant 2 and the poor thing went haywire on its next flight.
Compass errors, magnetic interference ect. I tried to calibrate the compass...it failed twice but worked on the third time but again when flying I was getting compass errors.
I broght it home and saw the electronic demagnetizer for sale on ebay, but people were saying just get a strong magnet and rub it around the compass areas before forking out money, I did and it calibrated fine first time after that, is that the correct course of action? .
Not had the weather to test it.
Regards
Ped
