Hi guys, just got my Mavic 2 Pro activated and was checking the sensors and i discovered that at least my drone has just one compass... Any info on that?
 
I thought I read somewhere that the prior mavic with redundant compasses may have been a factor in fly-aways... so one compass may help prevent that. Who knows..

DJI has the A3 which can have 3 compasses. They have the algorithms to assimilate multiple compasses to average a true location, and reject interference. They just did this to differentiate the mavic 2 from the rest of their lineup. One good compass however, is more than enough. Just not sure if it's an M8N with good antenna and anti-rejection algorithms or not.
