Hernan Borcano replied to Coty Wood's discussion DCM bad heading = almost lost my craft
"I do not have a pixhawk but I think it may be using both onboard and mast compass. But it may be just that your compass is not calibrated well enough. You could switch to EKF also which seems to be pretty stable for flight now."
