Hi!
I have never before analyzed the log files.
The thing is, I updated the compass on 3DR Solo (Open Solo 4) and wanted to see if there is feel-able difference (the compass is Pyxis Magnotometer (i2c version) with RM3100).

Auto Analysis before:

(as we see I had IMU mismatch but was flying OK)
Compass = GOOD - mag_field interference within limits (8.6.4%)

Mag before:

After compass upgrade I got such picture (did level and compass calibration):

Compass = WARN - mag_field interference within limits (23.89%)

WARN: Large compass offset params make me think if everything is OK.
Calibration was done outside almost from the same spot as for before, so for after.
Drone armed, was flight in loiter, position hold/altitude hold.
If I wouldn't checked the logs - I wouldn't know.

Do I need to consider something, change or these parameters are not so important at all (put back previous compass)?
I think, there is some incompatibility with RM3100 on Open Solo 4.0.0 ArduCopter 4.0.1 ? (@Pedals2Paddles your opinion? )
Maybe someone can explain what can cause Y & Z offsets be so high (but they are green)
