My file logs size in Pixhawk 2.1 (the cube) are about 80MB for 30 minutes flight. I thought this was normal but a frind of mine told me his log files are never bigger than 5MB. My parameter LOG_BITMASK=65535.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
I think 80MB sounds about normal for a 30min flight. I’m not sure why your friend has much smaller logfiles.
May be he was talking about Tlogs… Thank you!

Hii
my log file size are all above 200MB, (cube orange), for less then 5min flight time.
I think I am saving some unwanted stuff, any suggestions to reduce it
Thank you
It will depend on these parameters
- LOG_BITMASK
- SCHED_LOOP_RATE
- INS_LOG_BAT_MASK
there is a parameter you can use LOG_FILE_RATEMAX which sets the maximum rate of any streaming (repeated) log message
Thank You,
currently the LOG_FILE_RATEMAX in my aircraft is set to 0, according to the Ardupilot Document.) its recommended to set it to 400Hz, I want to know what will be the effect of doing this, can you please explain me 
Thank you
setting to 400 won’t do anything as no message is over 400Hz now.
To make the logs smaller I’d recommend setting it to 25 or so
