P3A Australian Compass Calibration

[Angoo]

Hey there,

I just bought my P3A today and I heard that some people are saying that in Australia you need to do the compass calibration the opposite way to which the app tells you.

E.g) APP: Turn 360 degrees Clockwise. AUSTRALIA: Turn 360 degrees Anti-Clockwise.

Is this correct?

 

[msinger]

You can do it either way.

Thats correct or you can turn the phone upside down.

Do it anti-counter-clockwise. Counter-clockwise will aggravate the drop bears.

Hey, thanks for the reply. What are the drop bears?

Drop bears are an extremely aggressive deadly animal that live in trees and drop on you and attack.

I don't think that is correct - I've just bought a Ute load of tartan paint & some glass hammers if you're interested? Oh, and a couple of long stands...

You might need a left handed screwdriver

 

[Curasail]

Don't forget the elbow grease and a bucket of steam ......

 

[happydays]

And some stripey rope.

Need this thread deleted please. Answers are just plain stupid and insulting.

You got your answer in the first reply.

Some levity is allowed. That you are upside down (or we are) should not be insulting. That said, that's enough levity from the peanut gallery.
