Hello,
I’ve build a quadcopter that has to fly indoor, if put a TeraRanger Evo Mini facing up so I can use simple object avoidance to not crash into the celing as described here.
https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-rangefinder-setup.html#common-rangefinder-setup
I’ve configured all the parameters like this:
Range finder configuration:
- RNGND1_ADDR: 49
- RNGND1_MAX_CM: 300
- RNGND1_MIN_CM: 3
- RNGND1_ORIENT: 24 (Facing up)
- RNGND1_TYPE: 14
Colision avoidance configuration, described here.
https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-simple-object-avoidance.html for AltHold
- AVOID_ENABLE: 7
- AVOID_DIST_MAX: 2 (So it stops at 2m from de ceiling)
And the thing is that once I have all this configured, as far as I’ve read, it should be good to go, but if I go to the initial page of Mission Planner and look for the sonarrange parameter it doesn’t show up, but if I set the ORIENT to 25, down, it shows a correct distance (to the ceiling), is this normal?
Thank you.
