I know that it's been a while, but from what I know about the AR.Drone and ardrone_autonomy here's my input:
1) Is AR.Drone flying? If it's not, then you should see altd showing 0. The velocities are estimated using the bottom camera and they're only going to estimate the x and y velocities, not z.
2) The video is streamed from the front camera automatically along the /ardrone/front/... topics. Unfortunately, the AR.Drone 2.0 doesn't support streaming both cameras at the same time.In order to get a video stream form the bottom camera along the /ardrone/bottom/... topics you need to call a service to switch cameras using rosservice call /ardrone/togglecam or something similar. Using tab to automatically fill in your commands is very useful.
3) Not really sure what you're getting at here.
