    Abnormal Compass Data just before Take Off

    Thanks frozentobacco - I have mapped K1 and K2 onto the Attitude 'Pitch and Yaw' so I can experiment with the sensitivity. It's a bit windy today - will give it a go when things settle down.

    Abnormal Compass Data just before Take Off

    Success!! Thanks guys! The changes made to the setup (battery to be more central hanging off the battery tray on Velcro) and the configuration of the offset helped. The alert went away. 1. On manual, it was still behaving oddly - i.e. tipping over 2. On ATTI and GPS ATTI, we got it to take...

    Abnormal Compass Data just before Take Off

    A quick addition - I have the following led sequence on the A2 IMU (the small LED) - '1 green, 2 red, 6 green, pause' (repeatedly) - no error reported on A2 software. Any clue as to what that indicates - I could not find anything on the A2 IMU LED sequences.

It goes away after powering down and back up again. And comes back again, when throttle is increased to...

    Abnormal Compass Data just before Take Off

    Hi, We are trying to fly the S1000 on A2 using 14SG on manual mode. The A2 LED does three violet flashes in repetition which we recently learnt is normal. Now as the throttle is increased, the motors rev up nicely. And just as it seems it is about to take off, a continuous yellow/green...
