I cant get the command CompassMot to work.

From the numbers when I "rev" up the motors the current doesn't change..

I'm using the power module, and I've set the options in the Mission Planners Hardware page and Battery Monitor to:

Monitor: 4: Voltage and Current.

Sensor: 4: 3DR Power Module.

APM: APM2.5+ 3DR Power Module. 

And I'm able to register the voltage when I plug in my battery with thiese settings, but when I try the CompassMot setup -> CompassMot in the Terminal, the current numbers stays at 0, thus I get the "error" message saying somehting along the lines of if I'm sure I gave it enough throttle or somehting. 

Anyone knows what I should do? I've followed the CompassMot tutorial here as well as read all the stuff in the Wiki about the "Power Module set-up to measure battery voltage and current consumption".

    I've tried to fly the copter somewhat now, and it looks like it works pretty good, but I'm just curious to see if this would give even better results as it should..
