Greetings all
I wrote lua script for drone 1 to yaw towards drone 2 in guarded mode.
It works in mission planner simulator just like I wanted.
But when I deploy the 2 drones outside with gps fix they can not see each other.
Massages:
Yaw Swarm Tracker: Waiting for target
they are both connected to a laptop via USB separately, and I can see both of them in mission planner with the correct sysIDs.
what could be the problem ?
Your help is much appreciated
Most likely this is because Mission Planner isn’t routing the mavlink messages between the USB links. I wasn’t able to determine if this was possible via USB in Mission Planner after a quick google search, but unless you’ve been able to confirm that this works, I would assume it doesn’t.
How did you set up the communication links when testing with SITL?
Thank you for your replay
i used copter single link then type 2 when asked how many drones
Can you share a screenshot of that where you are prompted to enter the number of drones?
Can you try connecting to the drones through their telemetry radios to your laptop instead?
I tried and failed that approach. The second drone times out when trying to connect even through its using a different port.
Right now I am trying to use mavproxy for the first time. Both USB com ports are now connected in a single UDP connection which is a good sign.
however, the drones still don’t get the gps location of each other. Even though they are both visible in mission planner with a single UDP connection.
