HITL simulation with VOXL Flight

[kasarrowtec]

Hey,

I am trying to do a HITL simulation with a VOXL Flight - is this possible ? after following the instructions via - https://docs.px4.io/master/en/simulation/hitl.html i keep getting preflight check errors with the compass sensor. If i connect a GPS receiver to the VOXL Flight deck will it work ? or do you guys have any advice on how to fake a GPS or a better solution for this ?

Best regards

Hi,

Thanks for the link, i have been following that tutorial but when i connect my voxl flight to Qgroundcontrol i get my drone is "not ready" . ive set it to HITL mode. It says one of the sensors need calibration but wont allow me to do it -
