  • Hi all, can someone please help?

    Did my maiden on the Sky Hunter last weekend and although successful (I didn't crash) There are a couple of issues that I need help with.

    1/ EKF Vibe was showing in red at the bottom of the artificial horizon screen.

    2/ error terrain alt variance warning was showing throughout most of the flight.

    I didn't notice these warnings as I was using a tablet with DroidPlanner app.

    I was playing around with the log files to see if I could make sense out of the analysis side of Mission Planner when I came across these issues. The log files in question are attached if someone would be kind enough to have a quick look to see if I should be worried.

    Thanks in advance, I hope someone can help.
