City streets tend do have ferromagnetic stuff around (light poles for example). Same for EM as there are most certainly cables underneath. I usually find some baseball/football terrain or some other wide green area, go to the dead center there and do compass calibration. Once, you get "quality" calibration, it should not be an issue for a while than. Also, you need to spin the MA, not like some people do go around themselves. If none of this helps, it might also happen something's wrong with your particular MA so you'll need to ask help from DJI support. My compass calibrations were also poor initially, but I was doing gazillion of mistakes until once I got it right.
I've managed to calibrate it twice (at not exactly the same spot, but like next door to it - and I've tried to calibrate there again today and it failed repeatedly), and it has never held calibration.. even within seconds after landing when I switched batteries.
Its beyond me why the Spark has no problems, but this one does. Maybe, as you said, I got a defective unit. |
