Research direction

Start at dvl-a50/mavlink2resthelper.py line 134 and read the linked Blue Robotics discussion for the reported GPS-origin behavior. Trace the value sent there and how it affects the vehicle altitude. Done means setting the first GPS origin no longer causes the altitude problem described in the report.
