SITL & Miniconda (Linux [Ubuntu 16.04] )

[mehmetyldz87 (Mehmet YILDIZ)]

Hi

I did the miniconda setup for a project . After this installation, I can not run SITL.

I have a few quesiton

1- Does SITL require Python 2.7 only ?

2- Does Miniconda change the path ? Because mavproxy.py is into miniconda/bin file

Here

Also the error can be seen from picture above . Some packages and functions are not found

Here

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/home/mehmet/miniconda3/bin/mavproxy.py”, line 12, in
import serial, Queue, select
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘Queue’
SIM_VEHICLE: MAVProxy exited
SIM_VEHICLE: Killing tasks

Thanks for your time and help

Regards Mehmet

1- Does SITL require Python 2.7 only ?

SITL uses MAVProxy as the GCS. MAVProxy isn’t yet compatible with Python 3.x, so you’ll need to run under Python 2.7.

Otherwise use --no-mavproxy when runnig sim_vehicle.py and use a different GCS.

Dear @stephendade

I created an environment with Python v2.7 into Condo and try to run SITL in this environment, but I got same error. Also I add Queue file into manually , at this time give other error ( such as: no readm() function ) . I will try with --no mavproxy.

Dear @stephendade

Yes it works--no-mavproxy and I use APMPlanner. Do you know a easy way of takeoff ( like arm throttle / takeoff 40)f in the APMPlanner . There is no takeoff command in quick actions tabs and also I could not be successful with waypoint . I set a takeoff point but I always get cmd 22 error and 400

Queue is part of Python 2.7. Are you able to double-check you’re running 2.7?

Are you able to get the vehicle to arm?

Dear @stephendade

1 - My env_copter environment uses Python 2.7

2- Yes , I can arm , When the copter is stabilized or guided mode

GUIDED

AUTO

[stephendade (Stephen)]

Ok, if it won’t arm in AUTO mode, that could be due to a mission not being loaded

[mehmetyldz87 (Mehmet YILDIZ)]

@stephendade

that could be due to a mission not being loaded

Dear @stephendade

I tried with a mission. I set a point as the take-off point, but the result is same. Thanks for support
