                  • With Copter-3.3 or 3.4-dev?

          • hmm ok thats bad news... So there is currently no way to use the opto flow sensor... 

            When I need to add another Sonar the quad gets to bulky and its not worth the effort for just positioning hold function...

              The recommended method is Lidar. It is much better than Sonar.
  • Does anyone know why you cannot use the barometer built into the pixhawk as the altitude for the optical flow? Is there a difference in altitude measurements between the barometer and a sonar?

    • Developer
      Because you need to know the exact distance to the surface you are looking at, and the Baro has no knowledge of that.
    • Because MS5611 has kilometer-long range and tens of meters' error over time, while sonar has meter level range and centimeter level error.

  • Now that 3DR is no longer selling the optical flow sensor. Which is the preferred chinese vendor to buy this from? I am asking this because there are reports that the sensors from some suppliers are not working correctly.
