>From http://autoquad.org/wiki/wiki/configuring-autoquad-flightcontroller/autoquad-calibrations/calibration-faq/magnetic-declination-and-inclination/ **Magnetic declination** is the angle between magnetic north (the direction the north end of a compass needle points) and true north. The declination is positive when the magnetic north is east of true north. **Magnetic inclination** is the angle made by a compass needle when the compass is held in a vertical orientation. Positive values of inclination indicate that the field is pointing downward, into the Earth, at the point of measurement. -- GitHub Notification of comment by kenchris Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/magnetometer/pull/21#issuecomment-300764943 using your GitHub account
