@Veikko, if you enable logging in your ground station, then you already are recording everything you need to replay a trick. The problem will be taking that data and turning it into something repeatable. The timing of the control movements is likely to be critical in many tricks, and if you just blindly playback the same sequence I suspect you won't get the same aircraft movement. So you'd need to edit the sequence to add some timing information, such as "do this until the pitch is greater than 30 degrees".

We're going to need to experiment to see what works, then build up a public library of scripts that are known to work.

Maybe it is possible to record certain stunts that the masters perform for "canned tricks"

that can be played back.

I don't think so. Tricks are very dependent on environment and aircraft parameters.

How about adding a capability to do fixed wing A/C hovering? It would allow fixed wing A/C to do take-offs and landings from a very small place.

What does "A/C" mean?

Comment by Veikko Vierola on August 1, 2011 at 3:09pm

Air/Craft

I already covered that in the post. "Harrier/hover (duration)"

Comment by Veikko Vierola on August 1, 2011 at 3:24pm

Ok that's cool. To make sure hover in this case means flight attitude where aircraft nose is 90 degrees up and roll torque is eliminated with ailerons, alt controlled with thrust, position with elevator and rudder?

I like this script , if you can do this ,the auto-land strategy wish you add in APM, it will put the system become strong . Best WIshes

Hey

I wanted to know were the devolpement of the impementaion of a Python interpreter running a script that communicates (via the GCSs) with APM in MAVlink is?

 

My goal is to have a script for autonomous soaring for gliders...This would be possible if i cun run the script on the GCS...
