Hi,
I've just been attempting internal compass calibration on a D10A. I've downloaded the latest firmware to it, setup the airspeeds, inclination etc. with no problems.
I'm using the internal calibration tool 1.1.3 that is current on the website.
At first, everything on the ground part seemed ok. We started AIRRGT OK too. When we completed AIRLFT and END, the laptop still thought it was receiving turn data.
We started again (while in the air) by pressing AIRRGT, doing the right 30, then AIRLFT, but the laptop again was still receiving turn data after pressing END
I have all the log files generated during calibration.
All comms to the D10A seem to work fine. Data is being pulled down. I updated the firmware, so I'm happy that that is all OK.
Questions:
1. What should we see on the PC display after completion of the ground part, and the right, and left turns? (should there be indication that the right has finished?).
2. Should there be any visual indication on the D10A after the turns, when AIRRGT or AIRLEFT or END are pressed (it appears not, which is a little strange).
3. Is there anything in the log files that we can use to determine why calibration didn't finish.
4. Any suggestions as to what might be occuring here?
Many thanks,
