Sporadic airspeed values - normal?

Hi

After watching a movie clip of my plan flying on auto using the airspeed, I see that at times it oscillates pitch up and down, while increasing and decreasing the motor revs continually.

This seems to only happen with the Airspeed sensor connected.

I looked at the airspeed values in the NTUN log and found this:

2.79
1.19
2.62
0
3.41
4.87
3.2
3.12
0
0
0
0
0
0
3.72
0.62
0
4.13
6.04
6.78
7.67

The airspeed periodically drops down to zero suddenly, and then back up.

Is this normal? Is there something wrong with my sensor?

    • So I just connected my airspeed sensor, and I am getting values of around 9.6-10 m/s when I am just sitting still in my house with my airplane. Is this normal? Can I just easily zero the airspeed using Mission Planner? I have been looking for what to do, but I am not quite sure how to fix this...
