Note: If you calibrate your micro:bit while inside and in a proximity to your computer or something that produces a larger
magnetic field it will skew your micro:bits sense of direction. You will end up creating a metal detector rather than a compass!
Troubleshooting
Not Really North?
You may have a motor or magnet close by! The magnetometer is sensitive to all magnetic fields, including ones that may be
produced by other electronics, metal, or even…a magnet.
LEDs Seem Backward
You might have your logical statement backward! Try flipping your greater than to less than, or the other way around.
