    When looking at the flight logs through Flight Review I noticed that in the local Z position graph it seems to be inverted ( moving in the negative direction when the drone is gaining altitude). Is this a common occurrence? Based on the board orientation?

      Hi,

      The standard orientation for the body frame is forward-right-down, so seeing the Z go down as the drone gains altitude is normal.
