Hi All,
As I want to have a more future proof (backup) system, I decided to replace my Moitessier with more standard components.
Which is where I ran into problems: I bought a magnetic sensor (MPU9255/ GY9255) and hooked it up according to a makersforum blog post
Next, the I2C app sees a device on port 0x68, but the PyPilot app, while showing some data, is only static/. No motion detected, no data on the 'scope'.
What am I doing wrong? Is it the wrong device for its purpose? (I do not care too much for the accelerometers, I just want relatively reliable magnetic heading info)
Any hits are appreciated!
