How to create a Buddy RC system in ardupilot with Pixhawk cube orange

Hello, I have to create buddy RC system for my hexacopter. But problem is that I cannot use the pre configured transmitters. Hence I’m using Skydroid’s T12.
There is a documentation on how to enable multiple radio control receivers Multiple Radio Control Receivers but this document doesnt cover all my needs.

What I need is:

  • Initially the copter will be controlled by the student with his transmitter.

  • When the mentor presses a key in his transmitter, the copter control should shift to his transmitter.

If anyone could assist me with this I would be really thankful.

Hi,
This is normally done with a link between both transmitters and is independent from the craft you want to control.
Best regards
Maarten

we want to do this through wireless means. If you could elaborate more on how to link the two transmitters. How to setup the control switch logic and what are the parameter changes we need to do, it would be really helpful.

Thanks

Please have a look at the video linked below

This is an example of how the principle works. It is also available on other brands
