Hello! We are building a catamaran autonomous boat using PiXhawk PX4 Pro. We have configured it already for joystick remote control we are able to control it with no problem, but it’s having a hard time maneuvering for autonomous mission plans. When we set a mission and start, only one motor activates for some reason.
Parameters we have set so far (AFAIK):
Flashed ArduRover
FRAME TYPE - ROVER
SERVO1_FUNCTION - Throttle Left
SERVO2_FUNCTION - Throttle Right
MOT_TYPE - Normal
There seem to be no parameters about steering type or skid nor nav1.
We set the Serial Mavlink Version to 1 for the Telem 2 we use. (We are using Radio V5 Telemetry)
We use two 500W Brushed Motors with one ESC for each. (Note also, our ESC can connect to two motors but we use one each at OUT1 & 2, noting maybe it has significance.)
Anyone here have experience building catamaran UAVs? Any help would be appreciated as this is for our undergrad research. If you need more details, we are willing to provide more. Thank you!
