Hi guys. Last time I have a problem and I'm tired of this th problem. 1-2 minutes after takeoff, a compass error appears. Calibration does not change anything. Who faced such a problem? What should I do? Change the compass?

Are you getting the error at the top of the screen on the status bar?
Does this happen on every flight?
Are you in the same location each time?
Ensure you are away from anything metal such as rebar in concrete, poles, automobile, etc.
If you calibrate the compass with these things present it may show okay at the time but when you fly away from the spot is when the compass may show errors.
If it keeps happening, the Spark may need to be diagnosed by DJI.

Also, your compass may be magnetised by some magnet stored near the drone.
In this case, you can use a cheap demagnetiser.

1) Yes. At the top of the screen.
2) That happens in 95% of flights.
3) Places are different each time. I calibrated the compass in different places - nothing helps.
There is no way to give the drone to DJI service. (
Have not used myself, but some users did the job with this:
CFixer - degaussing tool for DJI drone

I found this device and used it. It's fantastic. My problem is solved. The compass error is gone. That's cool. Thanks for the helpful advice.
