Hello everybody
I want to simulate different control strategies using MavProxy, APM Planner 2 and Flightgear, based on the Arducopter controller.
I followed basically the instructions presented here:
http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2190616
which are explained pretty well. Instead of using a virtual machine on windows, I used only ubuntu 14.04.
I can simulate without problem, that is, APM Planner 2 and MacProxy connect and work well. However, when I try to finally use Flightgear with them both, following those instructions (executing firstly Flightgear, the so called "Manual way" in the manual), I got this in the terminal:
I try then to open MavProxy and APM Planner, and they both work! However, Flightgear doesn't do anything and its terminal keeps on throwing those errors. I tried also to execute Flightgear and MavProxy at the same time by adding to copter.sh:

I try then to open MavProxy and APM Planner, and they both work! However, Flightgear doesn't do anything and its terminal keeps on throwing those errors. I tried also to execute Flightgear and MavProxy at the same time by adding to copter.sh:
cd
cd ardupilot/Tools/autotest
./fg_quad_view.sh &
cd ardupilot/Tools/autotest
./fg_quad_view.sh &
that is, the "Automatic way", but with similar results.
Does anybody have a clue what I am doing wrong? I googled it, but I did not get anyway to solve this.
Thanks a lot in advance!
