Were you able to fly successfully after calibrating the magnetometer? 

I had the same problem as you when I started with the ARDrone - calibrating the magentometer fixed it.

The native s/w does all sorts of clever stuff with the cameras and sonar etc to self-calibrate. Would be cool to get Paparazzi to do the same, but for now, calibration is required!

I have the same problems with ardrone and considered missing
configuration of magnetometer before the flight as potential
reason. However did not yet analyze it further.
