Let's look at another one that's even more important, compass calibration. As we saw earlier in this course, the Mavic's compass helps the drone get its bearings and keep its bearings. Knowing that, it's easy to see why an accurate compass calibration is pretty important. But calibrating the compass isn't something you need to do all the time, and when you do, it's critical to do it right. Let's talk about both halves of that equation. It used to be that experienced pilots recommended calibrating the compass every time you got to a different flying location. Some pilots still do that, but DJI doesn't recommend it for the Mavic. Generally, you should calibrate the compass only what DJI GO tells you to. That's my approach. So that's the when. Here's the where, why and how. The where is hugely important.
