I finally got the chance to fly my H Pro for the first time yesterday after purchasing it over a month and a half ago. I've own a Q500 for the past 2 years since they first came out so I am not a first time flyer To make this short I encounter many of the problem mention here on this forum. All the upgrade and calibrations were done with no problems. I download one of the telemetry files just to see what it contains. Can any one tell me what each column of info across the top means and basically what the reading should be? I know what the basic labels mean like Lat, long , batt volt yaw, etc. I would like to know what Fsk rssi,tas, gps used, gps status, motor status, flags..etc. Thanks
 
fsk_rssi - Frequency Shift Keying Received Signal Strength Indicator in dBm
tas - True Air Speed in m/s
gps_used - GPS usage - True / False
gps_status - Just what it says (not sure of the values)
motor_status - Just what it says (255 is All OK)
error_flags - 128 - Airport Warning, 64 - Flyaway Checker Warning, 32 - Compass Calibration Warning, 16 - High Temperature Warning, 8 - Complete Motor ESC Failure, 4 - Motor Failsafe Mode, 2 and 1 - Voltage Warning

Checkout Helmut Elsner's great Telemetry Windows program Q500log2kml from http://h-elsner.mooo.com/downloads/q500log2kml_en.zip and download the PDF manual which goes into a lot of detail.

Great. Thanks for all the replies. That's what I was looking for. I also got in touch with Yuneec support and they emailed me the Telemetry windows program. But I am running an iMac. I'm going to have to buy myself an inexpesive windows laptop as an early Christmas gift :D.. This way I can run the Telemetry and GUI programs.

You can also use my App on the ST-16 - Flight Center (link in my signature below). It provides summaries of your telemetry, and allows you to replay flights, as well as making it easier to download telemetry from your ST-16 without messing around with SD cards.

Ok Thanks, but does it work on iMac's or is it only for PC's.
 
It runs on the ST-16 controller itself.
 
Great Thank you. I installed the early access version then the update on my st-16 with no problem. Is there an instruction sheet on how to use the different features and what they do?
 
Set your mac for a duel boot for windows

This is no more needed. For deep technical dive and analysis for Yuneec FligthLogs (all except H520 wich is a different SW family) there is now also a native MAC version available:

MAC OS X: http://h-elsner.mooo.com/downloads/q500log2kml_EN.dmg.zip

Download Win: http://h-elsner.mooo.com/downloads/q500log2kml_en.zip

Thanks for support and creating the Mac OS X - version to Frank Kieselbach

Great Thank You Frank.
Is there any plans to make a GUI interface for Mac OS?
