ROS + mavlink + APM working!

Hi All

I have started working on ROS interface for arducopter.

Currently I have a bare-bones interface working. You can get some sensor data, and control the arducopter by overriding the RC commands.

get it here:

Enjoy

Hi Sir

I used the USB cable to connect my APM2.0. However, I just can receive the state topic. If I want to receive the sensor information, what else should I do? Thank you!

Hi, i am new to this ROS MAVLink and APM thing.

I tried to use the roscopter and i encounter something like
"AttributeError: 'MAVLink_heartbeat_message' object has no attribute 'base_mode'

any idea how to solve this problem?

Cool. I haven't tested this yet, but looks good.

However, pymavlink dependency is not explained.

Can you explain how to install dependency?

I have Beagleboard and gumstix, so I'll test on that platform.
