How can I plot the MAT-file generated by Parrot minidrone?

After flight, the drone generates a MAT-file with many sensor values. How can I plot these like you see in the video at 28:30?

How do you get the flight data file? I still can't get it through the online tutorial configuration

Hi, Jarrid
Once you have retrieved the .mat file from the PARROT Minidrone, with the default name of ¨RSdata.mat¨, you load it into the MATLAB workspace. After that, you will have access to struct variables named ¨rt_xxx¨, where xxx stands for origin of the stored data. In the logging subsystem (attached figure), you can see the variable name on the ¨To Workspace¨ blocks as reference to which ¨rt_xxx¨ you want to access, as well as the position of specific variable you want to plot regarding the struct.
As an example, if you want to plot the position state X over time just type the following in the command window:
plot(rt_estim.time,rt_estim.signals.values(:,1))
I hope it helps.
