Hi Chris

 

Thanks for the reply.

I checked the manual and in the hardware setup tab it shows a calibration button (green) . on my mission planner 1-1-48 I dont have the button,? I have no logs to enter as its new and my plane is not ready to fly.  

How do I get a calibrate button?

You have an ancient version of the MP! Please upgrade to the latest version (1.1.66) here

Thanks Chris for your support, You have a happy newbie.

Will this work on Win 7 64 bit?

yes it will

Hello Chris

Have you noticed my comment in the Wiki below the page where I attempted to clarify the magnetic declination entry? I basically wish to clarify exactly what is meant to be entered so that ArduPlane applies the correct declination.

Thanks
