Hello,
I have done several calibrations and I can never get a value approaching that of the north, still very far. I live in Guadeloupe, the declination is -14.52.
What to do to solve this problem?
Thank you.

(To verify that GeoLink is calibrated correctly for your area, please launch the Spirit Settings and open GeoLink settings window. At Info tab you can see current Heading value.

Please place the model or just GeoLink to the North as close as possible, so that flight direction of the model is front of the arrow. Ideally compare to an analogue compass.

IMPORTANT: Make sure when reading out the Heading, the model is at the horizontal plane. So that at the Module tab you will see 0° inclination. Since some models such as SAB Goblin, MSH Protos are inclined it is necessary to find zero inclination of the model first.

When heading to North, you should see approximately 90 +/- 4°. Measured value should not be far from this. )

Hello,

maybe the problem is you are comparing it with a compass in a wrong way and the calibration is actually correct.

Could you describe how you are measuring it please?

Hello,
The compass pointing to the north positioned parallel to the helicopter.
Nose to the north, tail to the south.
On the right of the helicopter and the compass at 90 ° east where the sun rises.
Greetings,
Hervé.

Hello,

when tail is pointing to the South you should see 90° actually.

Please make sure that Position in the GeoLink is configured to Horizontal 0°. This is very important.
