Lol ,thank you.Thank you. Has it ever asked, if so when (like first flight)?
On a side note, I got a kick out if seeing your name again (good thing). Last time I was on here was 2017 or possibly 2018 and recognized your name and help along with a few others still here. Nice
Guess from what a member here told me it must be magnetized where my GMC was not.Ha, yeah, I’ve seen a few people do that from the cover over the truck bed. What’s the reason you can’t with the Ford?
Good to know. I’ll be interested to see if it even asks when I turn on (hopefully later today or at some point tomorrow. But I am thinking of doing at the very least a compass calibration even if it doesn’t ask for the first time flight. Ironically it may be in a blue zone. Which will give me the “opportunity” to try the Flysafe unlocking process as well. The Laanc is super easy and quick, but as many have pointed out, that has nothing to do with DJI’s flysafe zones (somewhat related, but not the same).sometimes a compass calibration will be asked for simply because of some hidden metal material in the ground ,or even just being to close to a vehicle ,or other metal object
in those instances, moving a few feet away will often result in the message disappearing on start up again ,you can also get a IMU, calibration request, if you carry the drone after it is powered on
and it confuses the giros in the IMU ,because the drone is not level
personally for me ,if you have a brand new drone out of the box ,while in theory it should be set up to fly as is, i would before flying it for the very first time ,do a IMU, Compass ,and gimbal calibration ,on a clean level ,none metallic surface ,so you know that you have a good starting point
i followed this procedure when i first had my MPP nearly 4 years ago and have had one compass calibration request in that time, and have never been asked to calibrate the IMU in over 600 flights
Great, thanksJust make sure the map is properly oriented to the drone before takeoff. Nothing wrong to hover after, but orientation on the map is critical.
Strong enough to where I had to remove it, do the dance then move away from Ford.Interesting. So I assume the drone gave you the strong interference message…
I don’t have the M3, so I can’t be sure but many of the other DJI products have information in the app(Fly app I can’t answer for) that will show the status of the compass and IMU. I tend to check that information often just to be aware of what they are doing.Or only if you see issues or when the controller tells you to?
That’s who explained to me why I could do this .This bears posting the link again. After digesting this you'll have a better grasp.
A short explanation of compass function, calibration and errors.
BACKGROUND The aircraft compass is often misunderstood, both in terms of function and purpose, but it is important to understand what the compass measures, why, and what happens to that information. At the most basic level the purpose of the compass is to measure the earth’s magnetic field in...mavicpilots.com
