Compass calibration is essential for ensuring safe and accurate operation of your DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise drone. Follow these steps using the DJI Pilot 2 application to calibrate your drone’s compass.
Step 1: Preparation
- Charge the Mavic 3 Enterprise battery fully.
- Choose an Open Area: Select a clear location away from metallic objects, high-voltage lines, magnetic fields, and cellular equipment to avoid interference.
- Update Firmware: Ensure the drone's firmware and the DJI Pilot 2 application are up-to-date.
Step 2: Open DJI Pilot 2 Application
- Power On the Mavic 3 Enterprise and the remote controller.
- Connect the mobile device to the remote controller.
- Launch the DJI Pilot 2 application on your mobile device.
Step 3: Accessing Compass Calibration
- In the DJI Pilot 2 app, go to the Main Menu by tapping the three dots in the top corner.
- Select the Safety menu or the section related to safety features.
- Find the Compass section and tap Calibrate Compass.
Step 4: Initiating Calibration
- Follow On-Screen Instructions in the app to begin the calibration.
- Be prepared to rotate the drone in specific orientations, as instructed by the app.
Step 5: Performing the Calibration
- Horizontal Rotation: Hold the drone horizontally and rotate your body 360 degrees. The app will show a progress indicator.
- Vertical Rotation: When prompted, hold the drone vertically with the nose down and rotate again 360 degrees. Follow the app’s guidance closely.
Step 6: Completing Calibration
- The app will display a Confirmation Message if calibration is successful.
- If calibration fails, move to a different location to minimize interference and try again.
Step 7: Post-Calibration
- Check the Drone Status in the app for any errors or warnings after calibration.
- Store the Drone Properly: Keep it in a non-magnetic environment to maintain calibration accuracy.
Step 8: Regular Checks
- Perform Regular Compass Checks in the DJI Pilot 2 app, especially if flying in new locations or after extended storage.
Note: Proper compass calibration is crucial for safe navigation and flight accuracy. If you experience repeated calibration issues, refer to the Mavic 3 Enterprise user manual or contact DJI support for assistance.
