 Equipment:

Pixhawk PX4 Firmware Version V3.5.0-rc8

s500 Drone kit

Problem:

I have done many autonomous flights before with good success but today I went out to test a new extension arm I added (to get sensors out of the wake of the propellers) and it seems that the added weight is causing the drone to sink when put into auto mode. I offset the battery and the CG is level. Either that or it is doing a failsafe landing for some reason but I checked the log and there isn't any errors that I can see. I tried putting the drone in auto mode 5 different times and same problem each time. It flys fine in stabilize and GPS hold. I have also had MANY compass issues in the past, and still get some occasionally (Error compass variance, compass yaw spinning/drifting). Anyone experience this issue before?
