Hello, I am using the autopilot pixhawk to log data of some sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, GPS,...) and after that, I use the function of the software Mission Planner that converts this data into a Matlab file. However, I don't know the units of the data in the Matlab file. For example, to gyroscope, Matlab plot the graphics of all the angular velocities, but there is no indication if the angular velocities are in rad/seg or degree/seg. I searched but did not find a documentation where I could see the units of all the available data in the matlab file. Any help is welcome. Thank you in advance. Fernando.

Hi, Im also tring to analyze the pixhawk data. How did you know to connect between the name of vairable to a specific sensor? (IMU, NKF7, etc.)

Hi, unfortunately the units are not given in the log file (as far as I know). Most of them are given here: http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-downloading-and-analyzing-data-logs-in-mission-planner.html Hope this helps. Sebastian
