Tips
- CAN-L4-3100 is pre-installed with “MatekL431-GPS” firmware.
- MSP feature is disabled in “MatekL431-GPS”. If you want to use MSP feature, reflash it with “MatekL431-Periph” firmware(AP_Periph_with_bl.hex) over SWC/SWD pads via ST-LINK.
- Put magnetometer far from power lines/ESC/motors/iron based material. >=10cm
- 2 ears for mounting can be cut off if you don’t need it.
- If the CAN wires are too long, bridge the “120R” jumper.
