[solved] How to relate RCIN2 and RCIN4 to GroundSteering and Throttle?

ArduRover Miscellaneous
1

HI,

First time user of ArduPilot (Rover). Just set up two flightcontrollers (SpeedyBee Wing and Wing Mini) with ArduRover, connected my PPM-based receiver and did some basic setup;

  • Channel #2 RCIN2
  • Channel #4 RCIN4

As these have always been used/mapped like this on a stick radio for my cars, and also use this with by MT12. This all works…

… but the issue is that RCIN2 and RCIN4 have no relation with GroundSteering and Throttle. How can this be mapped?

What you are looking for is probably this: RC Input Channel Mapping (RCMAP) — Rover documentation
If I understand correctly, in the end you want to set

also RCMAP_PITCH and RCMAP_YAW can be whatever you want but not 2 or 4

Thanks. Will try this out after charging the batteries again.
This also means I can use GroundSteering and Throttle in the Servo Outputs?

Yes.
RCMAP tells ArduRover what inputs are steering and throttle, SERVOx_FUNCTION maps steering and throttle to the servo outputs.

Solved, but unable to change the title to reflect this.
