Re: Companian vertical speed calculation derivation

Ok thanks, but then the question is how is the sensor calculating vertical speed? The sensor only knows atmospheric pressure (baro) at some time interval unless it has an accelerometer in it. I have analysed some data from a glider descent and a climb using excel & linear trendlines to see if I ...

Companian vertical speed calculation derivation

Can someone explain the formula & inputs Companian uses to calculate vertical speed? I have been using a FrSky precision vario to record altitude data on my Taranis to try and establish descent rates for various control settings. The data is then analysed in Companian. To establish the descent r...

Re: Taranis 2.0.9.2 to 2.0.17 update

Re: Taranis 2.0.9.2 to 2.0.17 update

In the USB drivers I have ‘STM device in DFU mode’ and have run Zadig, but it times out & fails. When I try to write ...
