Hello,

What method have you used to map the path taken by the drone. Does it fuse data from the IMU and the camera or is simply integration of the accelerometer using a filter to find the position.

see Engels Paper. He has a EKF doing all fusings of IMU+PTAM+more

I just asked the following question about an issue with the autopilot. Can you help?: https://github.com/tum-vision/tum_ardrone/issues/51
