Result
:
root@beaglebone:~$ rc_calibrate_gyro
Starting calibration routine
gyro calibration file written
run rc_test_imu to check performance
root@beaglebone:~$ rc_calibrate_mag
This will sample the magnetometer for the next 15 seconds
Rotate the cape around in the air through as many orientations
as possible to collect sufficient data for calibration
Press ENTER to continue or anything else to quit
spin spin spin!!!
keep spinning
