"Is it ok if the quad moves during compassmot?"
"I have seen this problem two times, once it was due to to much vibrations, second time was due to cold solder joint. Do you use bullet connectors between esc and motors or esc and battery?"
"Today it is so easy to create content hence the internet is full of text, images and videos. I guess people ask you because they want a condensed summary (read: list) of what parts went into your build, instead of trying to distill the…"

"Hm, so I had a successfull first flight with my apm2.5, mtk v2 gps and rctimer 450 clone kit today. I have added some pics of my setup since I think I get rather good compassmoot values (22%). I have also added my .log file since I have trouble…"

"@Joshua I know I read the datasheet, could have put an extra avrtiny on the gps+compass unit and configured it as an i2c slave (: ... perhaps little more work, not much though."

"Find it peculiar that 3drobotics homepage states the old apm2.5 is not compatible with the new GPS + compass combo. Especially since a feature of the apm2.5 is the ability to disable the onboard compass for an external."
