2. When feeling the drone is drifting after a long distance trip;
3. The drone alarms a compass warning;
4. There are metal materials beside the drone during storage and transport.

Calibrate Steps

Notice:
Do not calibrate the compass in parking garages, close to building or near roads with a metal core. For optimum performance, only calibrate the drone in open spaces, far away from power lines and other metal structures or concrete buildings.

Be sure to perform the compass calibration procedure at least 3 meters (11 feet) away from the nearest cell phone or other electronic devices to ensure proper calibration.

Step 1:
After the drone and transmitter already connected, place the drone on a horizontal and stable surface, and tap the Settings Icon then tap the “Compass” under the Sensors Item.

Step 2:
Tap “Ok” button to start calibrate.

Step 3: Calibrating.
Follow the onscreen display and instructions. During Compass calibration, the H600 will need to rotate along the specific axis which shown by the LED of each motor arm, until a tone is heard to change the next axis. Repeat this procedure for all six positions. A yellow box with a red arrow indicates the rotation axis which is calibrating. A green box indicates a completed calibration.
