Mission Planner script problem

Posted by anthony e jones on December 20, 2013 at 1:55am

Hello, I have been successfully flying a Bixler 2 with APM 2.5 ,   firmware 2.74b , mission planner 1.2.90,  3dr telemetry, windows XP.

I want to use a script to set a servo but I am having problems with the following:

print " Start"

Script.SendRC  ( 5 , 1500 , TRUE )

Script.sleep ( 10000)

Script.SendRC  ( 5 , 1700 , TRUE )

print " End"

When the script is run, the window displays:   'Start'   then 10 seconds later, 'End'   but the servo does not move. I am controlling the servo fine  with DO_SET_SERVO . I have also tried the first 4 servo channels. I have tried TRUE , 1 ,FALSE and 0   for the third parameter. Also Mission Planner .88 and .89.

Regards

A.E.Jones

    Hi,

    I know this thread is incredibly old but I have just ran into the same problem. Did you end up finding a fix? 

    Thank you,

    make sure the servo options are set to pass through. normaly rc input 5 != rc output 5 unless pass through is enabled.
