Hi!

If you use TDoA2, you should start by tweaking the outlier filter a bit. The outlier filter was originally written and optimized for TDoA3 and is suboptimal for TDoA2. See https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-f ... issues/549.

Change the https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-f ... lter.c#L33
This should get rid of some more outliers.

From your video it looks like there might be something else going on as well, but improving the filter should be a good start. Try it out and let us know if it made any difference.

Also, have you considered using TDoA3 instead of TDoA2? TDoA3 should have similar performance, but is much more robust to failing software, hardware and other problems.
