Can anyone give me some insight as to what would cause this error? Inspire 1 v2

Here is the flight log:  http://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/ZWW1VP4NU8PRUFODF4D5/

Hi Kevin,

It looks like you encountered intermittent magnetic interference at 2m29.3s into your flight, leading to unreliable compass readings which your Inspire 1 decided to ignore them, and record the subsequent 1.3 second of flight as "Yaw Error". Not 100% sure though.

From the log, I can see the Inspire 1 was still precisely responding to your stick inputs in ATTI mode. No need to worry too much if it does not happen again.

My 2 cents.

Henry

Thank you Henry. Your response makes sense to me.  I was kind of thinking the same. Others have responded as well basically the same. Like I said earlier, I recalibrated the IMU and compass and the issue hasn’t occurred since.  There were also several battery errors in that flight and I’ve returned that battery in exchange for a new one. I have no idea if that had anything to do with it but I was not going to risk it.  Thank you again
