Thank you again for your help on this! Iâm downloading it now and will install. What are your thoughts on the cable setup I sent earlier? Do you see any issues on establishing a serial connection on how I have it?
No easy to trace cables, but if it correspond to the diagram showned on beginning of discussion, it should work OK
Thanks, lets hope this works.
@ppoirier Just an update. I re-flashed to the R Pi3 with the Jesse OS distro. Followed the steps in the ArduPilot wiki with the exception of specifying âserial0â instead of âttyAMA0â. Second, be sure to include in the boot/config.txt file the following: âdtoverlay=pi3-disable-btâ.
With careful rechecks of my wiring setup I was able to successfully connect!! Thank you every for your help and input. This interaction is what makes ArduPilot an amazing community.
@ppoirier Sigh, yes⌠I turn all this off in Maverick, itâs a real headache with usb devices:

Check your Connections and PINs with Pixhawk and RPi.
I got heartbeat from pixhawk to raspberry pi.
Disable your serial port in Configuration->Interfaces.
enable_uart=1 in config.txt. sudo nano /boot/config.txt
then try this command for plane.
mavproxy.py --master=/dev/serial0 --baudrate 57600 --aircraft plane
Remember that you can only connect with 57600 baud.
Hello All,
I am trying to connect the Pix-hawk & Raspberry Pi3. I have followed the instructions under the below links and able to connect both the boards.
https://discuss.ardupilot.org/t/raspberry-pi-3-connecting-to-pixhawk/9524
I could see the logs as below:
STABILIZE> Mode STABILIZE

Now i want to control the Pix-hawk using my Raspberry Pi3. e.x. I want to stop/start the drone, by sending the command to the Pix-hawk over the Mavlink protocol.
Can someone give me the idea on how can i achieve that?
Thanks for the help in advance.
hello Rahul,
I am working on very similar project as yours. But I am one step behind. I am yet to establish communication between flight controller and rpi3. I am following
http://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/raspberry-pi-via-mavlink.html
I am stuck at point where I need to install package on rpi3. When I try âsudo pip install pymavlinkâ the console of Rpi3 was getting stuck. I am totally unaware of what can be done. Any suggestions or solutions for this please?
Or could you let me know the procedure you did to have connection between flight controller and rpi?
Thanks in advance
Hello Akshay,
I just followed these 2 links and was able to connect both the
boards.http://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/raspberry-pi-via-mavlink.html

Hi, I would like to know if it possible to connect the Raspberry Pi 3 to the Pixhawk 2.1 cube ? If yes, can I use the above procedures?
Thanks.
Hi Rahul,
Thanks for reply. I am following the same webpage as yours, but I am using APSync image and not Raspbian OS (since Jesse is not available now I think. Correct me if I am wrong). Thatâs because I had issues downloading pymavlink package as shown below.
Did you face any issues while downloading that? If yes let me know how you overcame it. Thanks
Hello everyone,
Very new to these stuffs and also to this forum.
I want to control my drone with raspberry pi 3 (with a matlab/ simulink code).Still not sure if its possible from Matlab/ Simulink.
Anyway, I am abiding by the link given in Raspberry Pi 3 connecting to Pixhawk for connecting rpi3 and flight controller.
I have used APSync image. I connected to rpi3 on its wifi access point and did ssh on 10.0.1.128.
Then I followed whats given on webpage. That is disabled OS control of serial output. Then executed
It requires some time to receive heartbeats, then shows âSTABILIZE> mode STABILIZEâ.
Does this mean that the raspberry and flight controller are communicating as required? If yes, why is that there are no parameters received and saved to log?
Thanks for your help.
