ArduCopter v3.0.0 peculiarities

I took AC3.0.0 for a test flight using my new MAVPilot software as the GCS. I programmed a simple flight path as so

3691033527?profile=original

3691033589?profile=original

And the outcome was this flight path above (which I ran twice)

I have no idea what is happening at Waypoint2, but it just seems to be a bit crazy (understatement), and then it corrects with 3,4,5 and 6 executing as expected.

I have attached the logs for inspection. the purple one is the first log and the second is green. Also the second has an ROI waypoint looking at the wicket, where I was standing.

Any help appreciated. (Maybe there is some magnetic anomaly, wow this sounds so Star Trek! lol )

    Bill,

         It's, as you suspect, very likely related to the compass.  I see you're not using Compassmot so you might want to give that a try.  I can't see from the dataflash messages how bad the interference is (tlogs work better or dataflash logs with the COMPASS message enabled).
