Iām working with a Cube Orange Plus mounted to a CubePilot and trying to get the internal magnetometer to be used as compass 0 for my quadcopter drone. When I attempt to calibrate the compass I receive the message āno mags foundā and the calibration fails. However, I am able to see the digital displays for the compass and horizon line on QGC react to the movements of the drone. The MAVLink command āsensors statusā does not appear to list any connected compass/magnetometer and the ālistener sensor_magā gives the message ānever published.ā I believe this issue is keeping me from properly arming the drone as well since I am receiving the āMAV_CMD_COMPONENT_ARM_DISARM command temporarily rejectedā warning when I attempt to arm. Does anyone know how to solve this issue or is it a bug with the current Cube Orange Plus experimental build?
Got the same issue myself. It seems the problem is with the latest PX4 commit. I tried uploading the cubeorangeplus firmware using an old PX4 version (downloaded in Jul-2023) and it worked fine. The āno mags foundā error is gone.
Thanks for the note @BusterB and @Pravin_Kumar. I will look into this. In the meantime, could you please paste the output of dmesg in this thread?
Just open the MAVLink shell in QGC and type dmesg.
Hi @JulianOes,
Please find the dmesg output for the scenario where āno mags foundā is occurring. Additionally, Iām providing the dmesg output from the previous PX4 commit where the issue did not occur.

Sorry, live happened. Iām looking into this tomorrow.
@Pravin_Kumar and @BusterB ok this will be fixed with:
I apologize for breaking it and taking a while to look into it.
