I added a current sensor (details later).
When I run APM terminal and invoke test] current I get good numbers reported for battery voltage, current and mAh keeps climbing.
When I switch to telemetry and HK GS, battery voltage is re
I'm running APM 2.11 on a newly built ArduPilotMega with IMU shield.I have a 3s lipo battery pack that is being monitored by APM (with 3.9k resistors installed in the voltage divider).When I use APM terminal (via USB), test] battery returns...1;8.35
