Automated waypoint navigation and Magnetometer heading hold

Posted by Francisco D. on December 22, 2010 at 7:20am

What would be the best way to get automated waypoint navigation for Arducopter right now? Backport changes from the ArduCopterMega branch to trunk or RC2? How viable/feasible is this right now? What about Magnetometer heading hold i.e. fly automatically on a straight line on a given compass direction?

 

Thanks in advance for any hints, answers or comments!

    Currently you cannot, next release should have navigation. Current versions only supports position/heading/alt holds. Having higher level navigation needs still a lot of testing and programming.
