Hey everyone,
I am relatively inexperienced with arducopter, I’ve built a few things here and there but have only recently been digging into the full scope of capability and I have a problem I’m trying to solve and hoping the collective knowledge here can help me out.
I have a project where I am attempting to convert a telemetry output, namely the “wind direction” as a PWN value to drive a servo. I’ve been scouring the various forums and technical data but have yet to figure out a way to do this. So first question, is this even possible? I would essentially like to determine the wind direction and then have that value output a PWM signal to drive a light array indicating the wind direction for visual observers. It’s a bit obscure but I feel as though it should be possible. Is there a way to construct a LUA script to pull from telemetry data? As far as I can understand the feature is already being utilized by the auto tune function so the ability to access that data must be available, unless I’m mistaken.
I have two aircraft I would like to outfit with this feature. One is running a cube orange and the other a cube black, so I should, as far as I understand, have the processing power and storage to run the LUA. If there’s any other info you guys need let me know, thanks in advance!
