Pressure Altitude (0x82,0x21)
| Description |
Filter reported pressure altitude. |
|
| Notes |
The US 1976 Standard Atmosphere Model is used to calculate the pressure altitude in meters. A valid pressure sensor reading is required for the pressure altitude to be valid. The minimum pressure reading supported by the model is 0.0037 mBar, corresponding to an altitude of 84,852 meters. |
