MPU9250 heading is slowly drifting

Rotating the sensors on 6 sides does not calibrate the compass.   This calibrates the accelerometers.

To calibrate the compass you need to slowly (like speed of a boat turning) rotate in 360, but only after you have leveled the sensors as well.    It helps to run the "pypilot_calibration" script to visualize this.

Pls have a look at this post, might help with i2c extension
