This morning I took my P4 for another set of tests and I noticed that at some point my altitude readings were completely off. I usually fly on a large baseball fields area (4 fields altogether) so the terrain is as flat and grassy as it can get. I did a few left to right flyby's (flying sideways). When I go right to left my P4 climbs 1-2 meters no matter what and sinks the same amount when I stop When I fly left to right it maintains height and I did not notice any sink after a stop. However, today, after different flight patterns, my readings were totally off. I was about a real 10 meters of the ground but my app showed 3-4 meters. When I carefully lowered the bird, reading went pass 0 (=ground) and started reading negative numbers. Almost like if the barometer was totally off or the VPS got tricked somehow. I was temped to use RTH to check if the auto land would use the info on the bird or the actual real height but I did not wanted to risk. On the attached pics you can see what I mean. I started with a 0 meter reading (=Home) and after landing on the same spot it reads as -3 Meters (same location) Has anyone experienced these readings? I will keep an eye on these until further upgrades but there is definitely a bug somewhere.
