m/s or kph? Doarama - Droneshare speed reporting inconsistency #132

Open bbasso opened 9 years ago

I came across an interesting logfile: http://www.droneshare.com/mission/35141 which made me wonder if this person has a pixhawk mounted in their lamborghini or if droneshare is reporting speed incorrectly. The info in Doarama says 73 kph but droneshare says 73 m/s over on the right. In any event, looks fast!

@geeksville what is the API unit for speed?

Seems this log is gone. Have you seen this anytime since @bbasso ?

@jasonmartens - have I seen the issue since, or the logfile? I guess neither in both cases.

I checked out this log and it seems Doarama and DS got the speed correct: https://github.com/diydrones/droneshare/issues/132#issuecomment-121755570
