In order to start the SITL in GUIDED mode, in mavproxy I used
param set INITIAL_MODE 4
yet the sim_vehicle still starts in stabilize mode (“0”), even though
param show INITIAL_MODE
shows 4. What’s the deal?
Also, I tried
sudo nano mav.parm
to set it that way, but no luck. Yes, I did reboot. Some unknown code force at work?
Regarding copter parameters, is there a listing of default values? Would it have been helpful to include a column for that in this param listing?
