Hello everyone!
Recently replaced the battery charging IC on our telemetrum after connecting to a battery with the wrong polarity. Now it turns on fine, happily connects to GPS and triggers igniters but the acceleration readings seem a bit off (acceleration in table tab of AltOS). I should be expecting -9.8m/s^2 correct? But In idle monitoring, connected to teleBT via radio, I'm getting the following:
I did do an accelerometer calibration before and the values didn't change. Am looking for any pointers for possible culprits before I have to go messing with the board? Or am I just going to have to replace the accelerometer?
Thanks in advance,
Tyler

But In idle monitoring, connected to teleBT via radio, I'm getting the following:
- -17m/s^2 when the telemetrum is stationary, laying flat on the table.
- -26m/s^2 when telemetrum is stationary, antenna down on the table.
- -6.5m/s^2 when telemetrum is stationary, antenna up on the table.
