Dont do it!!!

It may cause a break in the time/space continuum.

Just another bad thing people will blame on drones.

Wait, I thought that only happens when good Spock and evil Spock with a beard come in contact with each other.  Just great, another thing to keep me up at night ...

You could Make all the butterflies disappear, forever.

And the Unicorns would lose their magic horn, permanently.

Mess with Santa Claus sleigh too, wouldn't you, trouble maker...

Society has miserably mostly failed today's youth...

OMG... So that is why I have been having so many compass errors. I guess that's because I am Left Handed.

Your Phantom will instantly disappear into a parallel universe and your insurance won't cover that kind of loss.  Don't do it, DON'T------DO-------IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One can also spin one's mother in law in a counter-clockwise direction and it has the same effect------I know, I did it----YEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

So if the Earth is rotating counter-clockwise and you calibrate it counter-clockwise, aren't you actually standing still?

No wrong again, if earth is rotating clockwise and u rotate the "DRONE", omg not the DRONE, anti clockwise then u create a black hole which in turn will fix all the compass and FW issues a lot of Klingons are having!!
No offense Klingons

No again, someone didn't do the FW correctly added to the fact of clockwise compass rotation, the sun couldn't rotate

I competed the compass calibration in a clockwise direction and all went ok.  Soon after the calibration I received a message on the DJI GO App to update the firmware via the App which I did.  After the update I was able to implement and use Follow-me, Point of Interest, Way Points and IOC!  Also, I now have terrain and obstacle avoidance (would be great for Ray to avoid trees).   Also. I was able to set a new altitude and distance record which will be official after DJI verification.  I was sent a DJI4Q for Beta testing.

If you calibrate clockwise and nose up, it unlocks a special flight mode on the P3P.
