      Hi there,

      I have been noticing that the altimeter in QGroundControl is displaying the wrong data for the RB5 Flight. Moving the drone up by hand and holding it reports a positive number for a brief moment before reporting zero, and moving the drone down and holding it reports a negative number for a brief moment before reporting zero. This makes me think that GQC is actually reporting vertical speed data instead of altitude data, and I tried a sensor calibration through QGC, but the problem still exists. Is there a way to check the pose/vehicle odometry for the RB5 like there was for the VOXL drones? Any help would be appreciated.

      Thanks,
      John S

        @John-Schmidt Any chance you're accidentally getting data from two RB5's coming through?

          No, I don't believe so. I only have one RB5 in the lab.
