LOL, it is a good idea at minimum, to check it and verify nothing has changed. I don't recal each time because of the trim setting but it is a safe bet to recal each time. Better safe than sorry. Long answer. :lol:

well, usually it looks like the baro and the mag are still calibrate, but one time i had noticed that the mag wasn't reacting good, so i calibrate again and it worked well since.
it's not that easy to do this calibration every time you know... i still need to fine trim the ACC in order to avoid drifts... so it's a pain...
