support for on-board compass calibrator

Open tridge opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

We have the new on-board compass calibrator in master now and it will also be in the 3.4.0 plane release. You can see the protocol here: https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot/blob/master/libraries/GCS_MAVLink/message_definitions/ardupilotmega.xml#L713 and an implementation in MAVProxy here: https://github.com/DroneCode/MAVProxy/blob/master/MAVProxy/modules/mavproxy_calibration.py#L115 the on-board mag cal can do soft-iron corrections which can be very worthwhile on some aircraft. It would be great to get support in AP2 for this new calibrator.
