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.

Each cable is double ended with 12", so each makes 2 cables of 6" if you don't need both with the hirose.
Doesn't look like helibatics has cables anymore.
Version Pixhawk software to install.
I understand that they have a upgrade of software that take care of "Range Finders" and other bugs.
Is there a stable or beta version that takes care these problems ?
And what Version is it ?
Initial setup Setup of Pixhawk.
Does Battery need to be plugin to make Pixhawk Initial settings ?
