I just managed to set connection on UDP by copying messages from telemetry port of APM and send it to APM and also the APM planner 2.0 messages back to APM. What I experience is I see heavy traffic between the ardupilot and the planner but link is not reliable - it is dropped frequently and then it returns. It’s obvious that it’s only me who can troubleshoot it perfectly but for this I’d like to ask your help to understand - what way the link stability is considered by the APM Planner? What way does it declare a link lost or not? Does it apply pings or just considers the flow? Sorry for newbie questions but it’s first time I try to use this on IP.
It based on how long it takes to receive Hearbeat messages from the connected vehicle. If it exceeds a set point (1.5s I think) it starts counting for 10s and then announces link lost.
Thank you very much, it did! It still does not work but now I at least send proper packets read out from telemetry port to APM Planner. Before I’d keep fighting with this what is the easy way the telemetry messages used to be converted into UDP packages? Maybe I’m reinventing wheel the hard way.
