Hello all,
I'm currently working on a multi-robotic experiment which uses ROS. For this matter we need to get telemetry data from an APM and sending waypoint and loiter commands using ROS. I've been trying to use the mavlink_ros package (see link at

I'm studying the viability of arducopter drones (quads or hexas) for research purposes at my lab. I've been reading about it and I have some final questions left. I hope some of you can clarify my doubts!
The first goal is to have autonomous ope

i am trying to understand how does it work mavlink_ros . There are two topic, /fromMAVLINK and /toMAVLINK.
From the /fromMAVLINK topic i received information about: seq, stamp, secs, nsecs, frame_id, len, seq, sysid, compid, msgid, fromlcm, pay

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.

I've been learning ROS/Gazebo/Stage for a little bit and wanted to graduate to building an actual robot. The Arducopter looks like a good solution which appears to be ROS compatible. If I bought an Arducopter today, what do I need to do to have it

Is there a group working on ROS-APM integration or is everyone more or less developing custom solutions for their problems? I am getting ready to dive into it myself and did not want to duplicate anyone else's work. My particular interest is in get
