Hello everyone,

I have a Pixhawk which uses an external arduino to monitor series of sensors. The sensors will trigger an 'event', and I want to record the latitude and longitude and events on the dataflash and telemetry logs.

I have been trying to use the arduino to activate the CAM_FEEDBACK_POL to record the event as a Camera trigger, which has been unsuccessful.

From my research, I think that this only works if the camera was initially triggered by the Autopilot inside a mission.

I understand that this will also not work if you use the CH7 manual shutter release either.

Is there any way to bypass these restrictions to allow me to do what I need? Or, is there a better way to achieve my desired outcome?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
