Aloha Cetacean,
I thought for IMU calibration, we just need a flat surface, do we need it to be away from interference as well? Finding a level table in the middle of a park is not easy.
Aloha yoengel,
It is not that demanding, although some really do have a hard time finding a place without interference. At least in my case, when I start up my system, I get an interference report for Radio Channel Quality (below IMU and Compass). This is how I know if I can do a proper IMU calibration.
So, if you are in your yard, or other favorite launch spot, bring a board, something for shimming and a level. (You can practice getting the board level in a close grassy spot.) Then once it is set up, do the IMU calibration. In my yard, I have a picnic table that is leveled with shims and a plastic launch stand that is leveled to.
Hope this helps!
Aloha and Drone On! |
