Question for Arducopter Experts/ Hobbyists...

Posted by Shyam Balasubramanian on January 16, 2013 at 4:06pm

Hi Guys,

I need to have wireless connection to Arducopter to receive and transmit commands and video with WI-Fi router. I have an OpenWRT compatible router and need to run OSLR (Optimized Link state routing protocol) on arducopter.

1) Is this possible, if so how can I achieve this?

2) What should I install/ hack on the arduino (ATMega board)?

Thanks for the upcoming answers;)

To gain a wifi link you could use this https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10822 reading the data-sheet it does not support OLSR.

I pretty sure the APM is not capable of running a routing protocol as well as the ArduPilot code. If you where to support t you would need an off-board device that can do the processing fro you and translate that to serial to the APM
