read a lot of the posts on this, i get compass error after i connect. camera is working. often it works itself out after a few minutes of waiting, but sometime not and i fly in atti; any other suggestions?
 
Have you tried recalibrating the compass in a open area away from interference?
 
If the compass was calibrated nearby in an appropriate open area, sometimes if you're taking off near a metal object you'll get compass error before takeoff. Just move the drone to another area and it usually goes away. Never take off with a compass error, make sure it's working before takeoff. If you get an error during flight, you should immediately RTH to reduce risk. Recalibrate.

Even buried pipes and rebar in concrete will interfere with it.

Auto-RTH does not work when a compass-error is present. He should manually fly it back, when he knows, how to fly it in ATTI-Mode.
