A plurality of sensor datasets is received including: (1) an interference sensor dataset which is associated with interference between airflow from a first rotor in a multicopter and airflow from a second rotor in the multicopter, (2) a first and a second isolated sensor dataset which are associated with isolated airflows from the first rotor and the second rotor, respectively. A generalized flow model associated with a generalized rotor is received and an altitude for the multicopter is generated based at least in part on the plurality of sensor datasets and the generalized flow model, including by using a non-linear filter that builds a consolidated probability function associated with altitude that reconciles the plurality of sensor datasets with the generalized flow model.
