TLOG to CSV Format

[Mckenzie Gray Turpin]

What are the first several columns a I am looking at when I convert a tlog file to a csv? Here is a screenshot of a few columns all the way up to the message id, after that I can figure out what is going on.

It's the Mavlink packet header. See

Right, but it seems like there are extra columns here, namely the column with "FD" at the beginning and "41/1B/74/81/1D..." at the end. What might those be referring to?

After the time, the column are exactly in this order.

0xFd being the stx. And the other you mention the message id.

The full packet name in human readable form is actually the outlier.
