Hello everyone,
I’m a beginner with LUA, I would like to set up flight scenarios with an LUA script, I have some questions so I can’t find the answers:
- It is noted in the Ardupilot website that LUA scripts are loaded at Ardupilot startup, so should the script be written from the beginning “Arming” until landing?
- If this is the case how to manage the arming/takeoff/flight/landing and the variables altitudes, speed, waypoints … for a complete mission with LUA?
I found these functions in the documentation:
- To be used for ARMING ?
– desc
—@return boolean
function arming:arm() end
arm() - Attempts to arm the vehicle. Returns true if successful.
- To be used for TAKEOFF ?
– desc
—@param alt number
—@return boolean
function vehicle:start_takeoff(alt) end
start_takeoff(altitude) - Begins auto takeoff to given altitude above home in meters. Returns false if not available.
- Or is it possible to launch a normal mission in AUTO and then load the script during the flight?
and it will then be possible to trigger certain specific commands according to a certain time by this LUA script ?
Thanks a lot for your help
Nico
