I'm use mavros with ArduPilot and try to develop system without GPS dependency
I have visual system that can tell me the distance from EKF Origin
I'm try to use the VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE (102) message by using vision_pose_estimate plugin
I have issue with the time stamp field that use only the nanoseconds part
The mavlink and the ardupilot code use EPOC time or boot time in micro seconds unit
Issue details
