Sensors QGroundControl User Guide question

_Leo_ — Mon, 17 Oct 2022 16:14:07 GMT

Hi team,

Customer has purchased the KIT-HGDRONEK66.

During the sensor calibration procedure in the QGroundControl he can see that the mag1_orientation is automatically set to "ROTATION_ROLL_180_YAW_90" after the sensors calibration. Is this the correct orientation of the sensor based on the FMUK66 / FXOS8700CQ, or should he manually set "ROTATION_NONE" there?

Thank you in advance for your help with customer's question.

Have a nice day!

Best Regards,
Leonardo

Hi Leonardo, that's correct.
After calibration the MAG 1 orientation is set to ROTATION_ROLL_180_YAW_90.
PX4 does a autodetection of the orientation and sets it during calibraton process.
