3d accel calibration needed, Compass Inconsistent Errors

[motherslawn]

Merry Christmas all,

I 'm using Sidepilot on Apple.

Upgraded 2 3DR Drones and Controllers to 4.0. Confirmed in SidePilot.

Restarted everything.

Level Calibration OK - Reboot
Compass calibration OK - Reboot
3D Accel calibration, all lights blink and stay blinking, software goes no further when I press next button.

System errors when I try to arm.

Any help you can offer I would greatly appreciate.

Thank you,

David

Try using Mission Planner or QGC to calibrate.

sorry for my ignorance, what is QGC?

QGC - QGroundControl - Drone Control
