[QUOTE="Mtntrogger, post: 120420, member: 18608"] Noticed a bizarre series of errors yesterday. Wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I was using Litchi to run waypoint missions. I have run this one mission a couple of times before, so I am very familiar with the distance. I just got a used P3S and wanted to test it out on a legit waypoint mission. So I ran it with the spark first to be sure everything was fine (even though Ive run it with the spark before) I was paranoid about sending the Phantom. After the spark made it home fine I got up the nerve, and sent the phantom on the exact same mission, she returned just fine. Then I ran a slightly modified version of the mission, using the same waypoints but changing the altitude of a couple of waypoints to get a better angle from higher up. I ran that mission with the trusty spark. Once again the mission was a success. I knew that this was the farthest mission Ive taken the P3S on. Heres where it got weird. I went on my computer to check the data on airdata. I like to examine the detailed data for battery errors and other anomaly's. I noticed that all 3 showed substantially different distances and flight paths. None were fully correct, all the tracks are way short of were the bird actually flew. I confirmed by watching the footage. Each mission was flown exactly as programmed, but the airdata information was way off. I did send them a message regarding this, waiting to hear back. If anyone knows the cause of this or if youve also noticed these errors on airdata please chime in, I really want to know more. Thank you [/QUOTE]
