Trying to set up a RPlidar A2 for obstacle avoidance, I cannot find PRX_TYPE parameter in mission planner

Alberto_Ds · February 2, 2022, 1:57pm

Hi everyone, I had reported this problem since August 21. I also tried with the latest stable but the PRX_TYPE parameter is not found because I’m using a F4 pro 1MB flash omnibus. I again generated a custom fw (4.2 dev) with the server and actually the PRX_TYPE parameter is present this time. However, nothing changes compared to the past: the sonarrange reading is correct with the lidar TF luna beneweke but the Simple Avoidance does not work either.
It has been reported here, but as it stands, it still doesn’t work.
Thanks
