Q.2

Q.3

Eduarto-toptal: Built a simulator in MAVLink with PX4 using Unity. The drone is flying, but there are still some behaviors from unhealthy sensors that appear sometimes, and we would like to nail down what might be the cause.

Question: YAW is not working. How can we debug?
Answer: Please post a log and open an issue we can help debug. (@dagar)

Q.3 How do you write an Airspeed driver?

Answer: Look at the datasheet and ensure you understand all the data you need from the device. Once you get the basic driver infrastructure, we must define the new data that no other airspeed uses.
