Hello I would be grateful of some insight, This is my first test build of a pixhawk quadcopter,
Went thru each each of the steps in the wizard in mission planner and seemed all ok

A little bit about my hardware and software.

My problem is that mission planner is showing the compass pointing north and gps direction is south?
with the quad frame pointing north and rotating clockwise the compass / gps direction moves clockwise
but the gps direction all ways settles showing 90 degree's out, ie compass pointing south gps pointing north
Is this how its supposed to be.

Any suggestions would be helpful.
