Hi All,
I have just upgraded to mission planner 1.3.6 build 1.1.5306.14681 and I can not get the compass calibration to work. I am building a new copter and this is a show stopper for me since you can't arm without compass calibration (quite sensibly! )
I just tried on my old copter which used to calibrate fine and its not possible there too ... can you help?
Please see attached screenshot for error details.
PC is running Windows 8.1
Thanks,
Andy

@Andy,
Please describe the symptoms of not being able to calibrate the compass with MP 1.3.6.
Have you made sure COMPASS_EXTERNAL is set to 1 and COMPASS_PRIMARY is set to 0 (External)?

Tom, COMPASS_PRIMARY only exists as a parameter in trunk, not in the earlier versions of the code
@Craig,
You are right. I am using a beta 2 version of ArduRover2 v2.46.
