Hi,

I am interested to send some high-level control commands to pixhawk using MAVLink, indoors. So, I have a motion capture system setup which gives accurate XYZ and orientation. I would like to tell pixhawk this information in order to use it onboard instead of e.g. GPS. How can I do that?

I think there is a way to do it by sending a MAVLink message to tell Pixhawk use these position/orientation data, but have not figured that out yet!

I appreciate any help.

Thanks.

  • Hi Mohamed, I am a student and building a quadcopter which I want to fly indoor. I have the same problem as you mentioned. Could you please tell me the procedure how did you solve it using the PX4 firmware 

  • PX4 Firmware solved the problem. It already supports vision/MOCAP.
