Just wondering what effect, if any, there is doing an IMU calibration with the bird near metal. The reason I ask is that I live in a very old house and the only level area to do an IMU calibration is on the kitchen worktop with metal underneath. I realise that a compass calibration would be disastrous under these conditions which is why I do this outside but having a completely level area outside for IMU calibration is near impossible. Anyone tried this with metal nearby and if so what was the outcome in terms of the bird flying OK ?

Its OK for a IMU calibration.. I do mine in a cooled server room full of metal cabinets and under floor metal cable trays..
