Good afternoon,
I’m using an old pixhawk 2.4.8 to test an ardusimple simplertk2b heading kit and I’ve been having problem that I’ve had no success trying to work out, and i was hoping someone could offer some advice?
I’m following this guide: https://www.ardusimple.com/ardupilot-simplertk2bheading-configuration/
everything appears to have worked up until the check in step 18, however the check in step 19 works.
I have the yaw data present in GPS_RAW_2 however the pixhawk is making no use of it, just the position data.
Presumably I have a setting wrong somewhere, but I’ve had no success trying to work out what or where I’ve gone wrong.
I’ve attached some images and the param file, hopefully it helps illustrate whats wrong.
I’m reasonably confident I’ve ruled out the basics (not that that’s a guarantee of anything):
• the pixhawk was updated and had all its parameters reset prior to starting
• both GPS modules spit back their respective config file after a power cycle (perfect match to that uploaded), so I’m reasonably confident they’re configured correctly.
• The GPS is the only peripheral connected, The wiring is very basic, and I’m getting data so I’d assuming its not an electrical issue.
• Mission planner and u-center both report ‘RTK fixed’ and the position is stable so I should have good signal.
• The antenna spacing is 848mm which u-center is reporting accurately, well with the 20% tolerance of that set in ardupilot.
• the gps and ardupilot are on a flat level surface (no specified tolerance for that but within a few degrees)
thanks for taking the time to read this. hopefully its a quick fix.
