Hi,

I would like to know what commands I should use and where I should include them in the source code Arducopter_2_0_55 for my quadrotor to take off and maintain an accurate altitude ?

And also, why can't I compile the source code ArduCopter_2_0_55 with the new IDE Aruino1.0 ?

Thanks

  • Thanks for your answer, I will test what you suggest if I still have some trouble I will come back to you.

    I have one more question, I would like to know how I can get the altitude of the quadrotor indoor (what function ?)

    Thanks

  • Jason does this sound right? I've been looking at the latest mission planner and some of the arducopter code. Without spending hours checking, it seems that alt_hold altitude might hold at whatever height the copter is at when you switch to alt_hold. I know there is more info about it somewhere, sorry if I am wrong. So you might be able to configure some waypoint to take you to a position and at a specified altitude then switch to alt_hold.

    Yes, Don't use the new Arduino. It's not supported yet.

    Thanks

  • Have you read the arducopter wiki? It should answer any configuration questions.

    Arduino 1.0 has only just been released and breaks just about every arduino project there is. Arducopter already includes alternative code to the key enhancements of Arduino 1.0, so there are not any immediate benefits to making 1.0 compatibility a priority. That's just my take on things but I am sure you won't have to wait long. You can grab arduino 0023 instead.

    When you look at the wiki is isn't very obvious where the instructions are because the trees on the left are collapsed. Expand "Instructions for multirotor UAVs:". but then again i've just had a look and it isn't obvious :) Try the mission planner
