What an ArduPilot message means and what to do about it

The barometer's ground level was set again

InformationBarometer and airspeed

What ArduPilot says:

The ground station, or a calibration screen on the transmitter, asked for a barometer calibration. ArduPilot takes the pressure it measures now as ground level, so the altitude reads zero here; the two lines mark the start and the end. On a plane with an airspeed sensor the same request also starts the airspeed zero calibration: cover the pitot tube from the wind while it runs.
