HIGH_RES_IMU and High frequency /imu/data

create file in your tf-card /etc/extras.txt

mavlink stream -d /dev/ttyS3 -s ATTITUDE -r 200

mavlink stream -d /dev/ttyS3 -s HIGHRES_IMU -r 1000

then using the following settings

IMU_GYRO_RATEMAX: 2000Hz

IMU_INTEG_RATE: 400Hz

MAV_0_MODE: External vision

Set Uart4 to 921600

MAV_0_RATE 92160B/s

after these settings you will have 250Hz /imu/data_raw /imu/data
