> ##Einfügen_Start = Calibrate Compass = ##Einfügen_Start1 The compass (and the GPS) is needed for the automated control of the !MikroKopter. <
> Therefore a new compass must be calibrated once for a proper function. If the compass has not been calibrated, compass and GPS supported features can not be used and you can not start the copter. <
> An error message (error 31) is then displayed via the telemetry. A recalibration of the compass is usually only necessary when the Kopter fly under the "PositionHold" function in circles at a remote location. <

> ~+'''The calibration'''+~ {{{{#!wiki important '''Please note''' Calibrate the copter outside, far away from magnetic influences! During the calibration you have to turn the copter completely around the axis. The following applies: If you calibrate the compass precisely, the copter will fly perfectly. If the copter is flying in circles ~-(with activated function !PositionHold and in an altitude above houses and trees)-~, you better calibrate the compass new. <
> When you have problems after the calibration (e.g. an err22), a magnetic problem on your copter can be the problem. <

> ---- = Check the calibration = ##Einfügen_Start3 You can now check the calibration of the compass in the !KopterTool or also with a suitable transmitter. Please do this also outside, far away from magnetic influences! Here you have to check two values: * MAG (or Field) = This should be around 100% * Inclination (Incl) = This should be nearly the same value as the one in brackets '''IMPORTANT:''' <
> To see the right values you have to calibrate the Gyros first (throttle up + yaw left).<
> Without calibration you will still see 100% and no Inclination. <
