    Do the apps and slpi processors share the same clock? I intend to publish external vio data to voxl-px4, and I'm wondering how it should be timestamped to properly ingest into the EKF2 module. Right now I am timestamping things on the apps side using the monotonic clock (same as voxl-camera-server and voxl-imu-server).

      @jon For MONOTONIC the apps side uses the slpi version so that they are in sync. Your application should use apps MONOTONIC. PX4 will convert it using timesync.
