Current Monitoring Issue

Is anyone else having trouble with the current sensor? In the CLI, my current draw appears to be correct but the voltage always reads around 2. Is there a multiplier I need to set somewhere?eg: V:2.6917, A: 0.0.0023, mAh:0.3851I'm running stock 2.1 and have the battery monitor mode set to 4.

  • you need to put "battery 4" in setup mode of CLI then use a voltage divide ratio in APM config.h start the divide ratio as .5 and change after verfiying the actual voltage

     

    current also needs to have offset factor which you have to set in the APM-config.h
