Hello  Jean-louis ,

I'm very appreciate your response - I'm Not familiar  with the ArduMega  especially with the landing capability.

My question was not because I want to make any change on the ArduMega  source code ...  

The reason that I simply want to see/understanding the ArduMega  lending algorithms - thus simple as it !!!

We wants to integrate the ArduMega in our project - to replace it with an old electronics - 4 modules...

Following to http://code.google.com/p/ardupilot-mega/wiki/MPWaypoint - One of the basic way point commands description is for example

 {NAV_LAND n/a, alt, lat, lon}

I'm very  interesting / also have  to convinced my  supervisors about it - If  it's really  work ... so I didn't find it... on the ArduPlane-2.32\libraries

In the past I working familiar  with GNU C under Eclipse IDE . - http://www.eclipse.org/

I'll take your  recommend and  visit the main Arduino tutorial page at:http://arduino.cc/hu/Tutorial/HomePage

I use a simple and popular editor SlickEdit to - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SlickEdit  follow on the command Top down

Thanks again for your response

Regards, Moshe

Hello  Jean-louis,

I tried using the HIL mode of ArduPlane 2.34 without the IMU shield. I am not being able to connect it to APM planner. MAVlink times out. I have set the parameters

#define HIL_MODE HIL_MODE_SENSORS
#define HIL_PORT 0
#define HIL_PROTOCOL HIL_PROTOCOL_MAVLINK
in the APM_config.h file

 Is there any other configuration required to use the APMv1 in HIL without the shield?

Thanks and Kudos again for the wonderful work...

Regards,Swaroop

Hello Swaroop,

The official version of ArduPlane v2.34 need to be patched so as to be used without IMU shield. If you want to use your APM IMUless version with the mission planner, I recommend to use my customized ArduPlane v2.28 version at: http://ardupilotdev.googlecode.com/files/ArduPlane_228xp2.zip

Ps: You must use the library included in the zip.

Regards, Jean-Louis

Hi  Jean-louis,

Thanks for the prompt replay. I am trying to compile your ArduPlane using the APM specific arduino-1.0-relax patch, it s giving me errors like:

In file included from C:\arduino-0100-relax\libraries\AP_GPS/AP_GPS_Auto.h:9,

C:\arduino-0100-relax\hardware\arduino\cores\arduino/HardwareSerial.h:75: error: 'Serial3' has a previous declaration as 'HardwareSerial Serial3'

So there must some conflict between the existing Arduino headers and the FastSerial library header....

Could you please help me out??

I also tried the arduinocpp tool for compiling your code. It gave a LOT of weird errors, more than arduino.

Thanks again for your support.

Regards,

Swaroop

Hello Swaroop,

You need to use the the Arduino-0022-relaxpatch to compil it successfully at:

http://ardupilot-mega.googlecode.com/files/arduino-0022-relaxpatch.zip

I have just checked this myself and it works well, see below:

Please don't forget to use the library attached with the firmware...

Hi Jean-Louis,

Sorry to bother you again..that too on a weekend, but I am trying to get the telemetry over xbee working on Serial port 3, but to no avail. I have set the following parameters in the APM_config.h file

#define GCS_PROTOCOL GCS_PROTOCOL_MAVLINK

#define GCS_PORT 3

#define SERIAL3_BAUD 38400

I am using your firmware for HILS w/o the IMU shield.Could you please help ?

Regards,Swaroop
