Hi

My inspire one is loosing height when hovering. ive recalibratted and still have this issue. i end up landing with telem saying its still at 5m then resets when i turn off.

I am wondering if the sensor somewhere or camera below has gone faulty. ive had it over a yr but have harly used. its well looked after mint in condition.

it also seems to calibrate the miu alot but it may just be me noticing it more. ive only just noticed the problem.

help please

Is this coning from the barometer altitude reading, the VPS reading or both?

Make sure you have the VPS enabled on the go app . If you do also inspect the wires going from VPS to the AC, a light cleaning is sometimes in order on the VPS ,  just a blow of air on the two screened sensor's and a cleaning of the opitical sensor with a lens cloth .  


Make sure you are getting good data from the sensor at heights below say 3 meters. If after you do the above cleaning and making sure it is enabled it may need replacing .

When you look at the telemetry information in the Go app, the height information represents the barometer reading, while VPS would display the VPS read out (when applicable).
