Switching from AUTO and back again, what will happen?

Posted by DaveyWaveyBunsenBurner on September 28, 2010 at 3:26am

Hi,

 

If I programme a mission on Ardupilot, but go back to manual part way throug that mission, what happens if I then go back to AUTO?

 

Will it conitue where it left off or start over again??

 

Also, can you fly the same mission multiple times without reprogramming it?

 

Thanks

 

D

    I will actually reload the current waypoint and reset the crosstrack correction. That's all.

    It's easy to change the default behavior:

    case AUTO:
    // reload the current WP and set control modes;
    load_waypoint();
    break;


    case AUTO:
    // reload the first WP and set control modes;
    wp_index = 1;
    load_waypoint();
    break;

    As far as I know, it will just start over again.

    If you want to fly the same mission multiple times, then, after the mission is done, you have to briefly switch to manual and then again to AUTO.

    Thanks!
