UAVCAN Servo Support

[DynamicMelody (Matt)]

Hello,

I was wondering if ArduPlane supports servos which can communicate through UAVCAN. I saw that there are some UAVCAN ESCs supported, but I haven’t seen any UAVCAN servos. If CAN servos are supported, are there any parameters which need to be set?

Thank you!

CAN servos are supported. Hitec makes some CAN servos.
Read here for config.

Thanks! I didn’t see that page in the documentation, that’s really helpful! I did find this post on the forum as well which describes the parameters and gives an example build using UAVCAN in case it helps others:

Configuring Ardupilot for UAVCAN

[image] I thought I would add to the UAVCAN article I just posted a note on configuring UAVCAN in Ardupilot. I have built a UAVCAN quad and it is so cool because there are only three connections to the flight controller. Power, CANbus and RCin are all that is required! The UC4H GPS/MAG adapted HERE GNSS, the 4 Zubax ESCs are connected UAVCAN and OlliW’s UAVCAN Powerbrick are all daisy-chained together on the CANbus network. I used Arducopter 3.6dev because it has revised and more consistent U…

hello, community.
I am looking for STM32 based servos, with UAVCAN support. The goal is to turn each of 4 rover wheels independently. Can you point out to some opensource project?
