Ardurover former wiki documentation available ?

Posted by Hugues on May 21, 2016 at 6:51am

Hello,

The former wiki for Ardurover was complete and clear about the first time setup. The current new ardurover wiki site does not give a clue about the channel assignments In (steering, throttle, mode)/Out (which servo outputs to use for steering/throttle), especially for a tank style track steering.

In the first wiki there was a diagram showing the inputs/outputs which was very clear.

Has anyone got a backup or copy of the old wiki site ?

Thx

    Servos has to be connected to Port 1 and Port 3 in Skid Steering

      Servos yes, but which input channels for throttle and steering ? That info is not given (was in the previous wiki)

      I have tried by trial and error to use channel 1 and channel 3, also channel 1 and channel 2, Pixhawk just ouputs a signal on RC1 (nothing on RC3) .

      Same vehicle I used a while ago with a previous ardurover release (2.4 I think). Was working fine then.

      Wha the heck has changed in release 3 that makes it so nightmarish to setup ?

      You have run into the same issue I saw.
      Arming has been integrated in the Rover but not correctly. You have two options:

      Arm the rover. It should work

      Set ARMING_REQUIRED to False (0)
