    We haven't enabled the magnetometer in the APM code yet, as you'll see in the manual (the CLI test is not documented yet). But the ArduCopter guys are flying with it now, so it's well tested and working nicely. You can either use their code or wait for us to integrate that in APM, which should happen pretty soon (it's running our dev trunk)
