Hi,
I have today struggled to setup ArduPilot into loop with X-Plane on my MacBook Pro.
I did everything based on the instructions at http://code.google.com/p/ardupilot-mega/wiki/Xplane:
1. APM setup with CLI: As usual
2. Changing APM_config.h file: DONE
3. X-Plane: ok
4. Serproxy (configured) and X-Plane perl-file: both run ok
5. X-Plane configured (data input & output, net connections)
6. (not done with this setup)
Here is what happens:
1. I turn on APM (which is connected to the other one of the USB ports)
2. Next I open and run Serproxy and get message "Waiting for clients"
3. Then I run the X-Plane perl application: no error messages
4. The problems arrive when I finally turn on X-Plane. At the moment when X-Plane is ready (the airplane is at the end of runway, and ready to go), X-Plane perl application terminates. The messages are following:
- "Xplane.pl": Invalid type '<' in pack at xplane.pl line 267.
Any ideas what I should do or check? Is the sequence of my actions correction?
All ideas appreciated!
Br,
Heikki
