Experiment to normalize mag axises. I've noticed that most of my mag have quite big differences on axises that can result in offset when tilted. Not sure if it will solve a problem of a quad going sideways in forward flight, but it's worth a try

Does this improve Issues with tilted MagGPS Mounts? Or is Free alignment still required?
Is a feature Planned in Configurator, to Add Tilt on Pitch and/or roll Correction in addition to the Standard Alignment settings?
Like CW270Flip
+
Tilt_Pitch Correction in Degree -90° | +90° (Backwards =-90, Forward = +90
AND maybe the same for Roll, that would Improve even the Use of a GPS Puck with Mag, if its been mounted on Top of the Airodynamic Shape of a Wing. In the Case a User will use a MAG on a Wing.
On the Wing the Interference would also be near Zero because its than mounted far away from the other Electronics.

A lot Quads tried to moved by Users with tilted TPU Mounts, (Example, GEPRC Crocodile Frame)at the same Time they have no Knowledge that the Mag calibration corrects only the Readoffs of the Magnetic Strength. Not the Orientation to the Flight Axis itself.
Euler Angle alignment on Aircrafts is easy to say not that Popular in the RC Community and require a lot off Basic Knowledge

Thats not a Problem with GPS only. But with integrated MAG, its almost every Week multiple Times Discussed in certain FB Groups.
