Hello everyone, my name is Mark, I'm new here too it is 7 months since I read your forum to develop my drone.
I apologize in advance for my English.
I show my problem:
I purchased from 3 months cc3d a revolution with gps M8N, this M8n don't have internal MAG.
My drone is a class 400 for photography, I want to use the gps for
hold position, return to home etc.
But I can not use these functions because the MAg the alarm (in magnetormeter status) is always red.
After reading many articles of the forum, I made many tests, I thought that the problem was the high magnetic fields create from the type of my drone (engine 4822 690), and actually raising the battery I have seen that the value in MAG alarm is considerably reduced, but remains red.
I made the calibration of May in the country, so be sure to stay away from magnetic fields, but on Mag alarm is always red.
Yesterday I removed the Revolution from the drone, and only with it, I re-did the calibration and the mag is always red !! (Well, I said that then the type of drone is not the main problem).
I can not install an external mag, because I have all the pote Revolution occupied (receiver ppm, minimosd, GPS).
I upgraded to the GCS RC2 16:09 (even the firmware), I went back to read the forum, but I get lost among the various articles and not know what to do, I have a big mess .. I'm lost ..
Please can you help me, remember that I am no expert, but I was learning commitment.
Thanks in advance to everyone.
