Recommended hardware

[fishy]

Sailoog is pretty much single handedly developing this platform and, I believe, it is up to the userbase to help out where they can and with most people not being coders, documentation is where this could be beneficial.  If every user added a link to hardware that worked on the appropriate page then we would have the list you are referring to.  

Take a look at the CAN page I created https://openplotter.readthedocs.io/en/la...n_app.html - I call out the board I used and have structured it so others can add theirs.  

this isn't really a message for you (as a new user) but if anyone else has known good hardware and wants to add it, send me a message and I will update the docs

Hi Techstyle,

I realize the workload Sailoog (must be) under- my question was not aimed at him, per sé. (although I certainly do not mind him answering)
I have read many individual posts, some are helpful in suggesting functioning hardware, others are confusing or only partly answering.

I was hoping we, as uses, could create a simple list of hardware that works (proven) or does definitely not work. Preferably without discussion.

So: For Compass:

Magnetic sensors

BNO055 - Does not work
MPU9255 - Works (recommended)
MPU9250 - Works (replaced by 9255)
LSM303DLHC - Unknown
HMC5883L - Unknown

... Please add
