 +The Z-ranger deck will be automatically detected when it is mounted. By default the range is available on the log variable "range.zrangeand is used instead of the pressure by internal algorithms.

 +The best way to use the Z-Ranger deck is to enable the [[doc:crazyflie:client:pycfclient:index#flightcontrol|Height-hold]] mode in the client. This requires at least client and firmware [[https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-release/releases|2017.04]] so make sure to update your Crazyflie.

 +The Kalman filter is a sensor fusion algorithm that is still experimental. You can try it by recompiling the Crazyflie firmware.
  
-To enable altitude control using the Z-ranger, the Crazyflie firmware has to be recompiled with the following config.mk:+To enable altitude control using the Z-ranger with the kalman filter, the Crazyflie firmware has to be recompiled with the following config.mk:
