Weird reading on altitud after loading the latest beta code.

Posted by Hector R. Santini on October 9, 2010 at 4:34pm

Hi all, I have downloaded the latest ArdupilotMega Beta code and installed it. My partial settings are as follows:

 

1. Downloaded latest Beta Code

2. Defined GPS as #define GPS_PROTOCOL GPS_PROTOCOL_UBLOX

3. Defined GCS as #define GCS_PROTOCOL  GCS_PROTOCOL_LEGACY

4. Defined GCS Port as #define GCS_PORT 3

5. Used Two Xbee wireless modules and two adapters for wireless telemetry

6. Defined Air Speed as #define AIRSPEED_SENSOR  ENABLED

 

7. Used Hyper Terminal to capture the Telemetry

 

My first testing at ground level outside my house is contained in the attached file with a partial reading of what was Caputured.

 

My main concern is in regards to the altitude which seems to be weird

ALT:-21474836

 

Can someone comment on what could be the problem?

 

Thanks,

 

Hector

    I was actually hoping you'd be posting the airpressure test readings, which are the only ones relevant to this question ;-)

    But since you posted the others, the radio data is weird. Did you move your sticks to the extremes during the test, the way you're supposed to?

    What are the readings when you test the altitude sensor with the CLI test suite?
