I am new to the site and new to doing some development with the ArduCopter.

I have played around with some DroneKit software for Python and Android. I have a fair understanding of it thus far. What I am trying to do is being able to get a ground station to control multiple UAVs.

What my process was is looking at MAVProxy and read up on it. I can connect to a physical drone Iris+ and a virtual copter by following this. I run the instance with this command 

sim_vehicle.sh -v ArduCopter -L PLACE --map --console --out <IP_ADDRESS>:14550

It works well and I can connect to it using MavProxy via the following command 

mavproxy.py --master=127.0.0.1:14550

Now I can connect to the physical as well with 

mavproxy.py --master=/dev/USB0

When I try to use with both mavproxy.py --master=127.0.0.1:14550 --master=/dev/USB0

It doesn't work and I don't even know if it would work to begin with I was just trying.

All in all what i am trying to do is being able to connect to 2 drones and be able to control them with 1 ground control station.

API: to connect to multiple vehicles
