    Hello ROADDOG1900,

    Unfortunately, the Compass does not allow for calibration.

    Thanks for info.

    it seems that the compass..(using any app) is not correct and appears to be approx. 60 degrees out anti-clockwise..

    Think I will need to contact support

    So you mean to say that there is no way to make a compass that isnt working out of the box to point the right way? whats the point in having a compass in the first place then? Do i need warranty service to get it to work right?

    Hi, just been talking to support. I was told to remove all compass related apps and try reinstalling them. seems to have work mostly, not perfect but think that is app related...maybe.   still a great bit of kit in spite of this.

    Update... compass seems to be still incorrect. Have wiped surface and tried apps again... still not accurate to use. Pity
