'EKF Primary changed' in-flight ... Is this a problem?

Hi guys. This is my first ever post on a forum.

I have a hex running a pixhawk (with latest firmware).

I have been getting quite a few EKF Primary changed messages occurring while I'm in the air (Err.EKF_Primary-1 & Err.EKF_Primary-0 in the log) I don't know if this is normal or an indication of something sinister brewing. I can't find much info online.

A week ago I got a lot of these in a flight and seemed to partially lose control of my drone. I was also getting 'Inconsistent compass' warnings on the ground prior to the flight so assuming the two were related I re-calibrated my accelerometers & compasses.

I flew again this weekend albeit on a very windy day. The inconsistent compasses issue has gone but I still got a few 'EKF Primary changed' messages. Could wind gusts be causing these latest EKF messages?

I've attached the log file from my latest flight if anyone has a moment to look.
