8.3.1 Airdog ADII Magnetometer (Mag) Calibration
Calibrate the magnetometer on ADII only if you see the error message:
“Mag failed!
Calibrate Mag!”
displayed on AirLeash during the Airdog ADII Preflight Check.
The magnetometer is very sensitive to magnetic interference and its calibration
requires an interference-free environment. Stay away from metal structures and
concrete floors or large buildings. Do not wear gloves or rings with magnets or other
ferromagnetic metals while performing the calibration steps.
Airdog ADII Mag calibration process:
1. Turn on ADII by inserting the battery into the drone and long pressing (3 sec.) the
Power button (located on the battery itself).

10. Navigate through the Airdog Calibration menu with arrow left

Airdog ADII is only meant to work outdoors and indoor calibration will lead to faulty
measurements.
• If you hear the SOS tone (three long beeps followed by three short beeps) right after
you have turned on the ADII, there is a problem with one or more drone sensors. To
solve this, please do the Factory Reset for Airdog ADII. Learn more about the Factory
Reset in Chapter 8.1.
• If you get the SOS tone (three long beeps followed by three short beeps) even after
Factory Reset, go through the Airdog ADII Preflight Check, that will show which
sensors are failing. Note that Preflight Check requires GPS, so you have to do it outside
in a wide open space.
