Does anyone know where the compasses are located on the Phantom 4? In the legs (which ones)? Or elsewhere?

I have not yet gotten my hands on a P4, but if is similar to the other models, it's in one of the legs. Do you see a 4 conductor cable going down one of the legs? Is there a little cover on the bottom of that same leg? That would be the compass. It needs to be in the clear as much as possible, so I would guess it's still down low on a leg.
After a bit of research, there are 2 compasses, one in each front leg. There should be an access cover that pops off if you are curious. Again, I have not had one in for service (yet), but it's a matter of time.
Two compasses in the front landing gear, near the top. I know because I've had to open them up.
Well actually come to think of it, the compass wiring is connected to a circuit board that extends all the way down the legs. And yes, I think the compass is the small black chip located at the bottom of the circuit board (near the bottom of the landing gear).
