Greetings.This is a cross-post from the ArduPilot blog.UAVCAN was first announced six years ago, in early 2014, as an RFC doc published on this website. Over the following few years, it saw adoption in numerous systems – mostly UAV, naturally, but…
Greetings everyone,The first release of Libcanard v0.1 was published yesterday. Grab your copy on Github.Libcanard is a dependency free, very compact implementation of the UAVCAN stack in C99. It is designed for low cost, deeply embedded…
"Thanks for the feedback everyone; Jerry, please contact me at pavel.kirienko@zubax.com. Thanks!"
"It is true that RCPWM input is supported. There also a closed loop RPM controller that has been used successfully with a constant rate variable pitch drive.
Regarding the motor parameters - Sapog implements a six step BLDC commutation logic;…"

"CANESC from AUAV has no firmware, it's hardware only. I guess it is targeted for developers. Sapog is not compatible with CANESC from AUAV."
"Thanks for the feedback everyone.Seeing as the price tag has triggered a few raised eyebrows, I need to clarify that this product is primarily targeted at professional applications, where the improvements in reliability and performance offered by…"
"Zubax GNSS 2 features an embedded SAW/LNA, a large high-gain patch antenna, u-blox receiver with TXCO oscillator (u-blox M8Q, the latest generation), and shielding which makes the device more resilient to EM interference (we successfully used Zubax…"
"Support for UAVCAN sensors in APM is a bit lacking, so the steps described in the tutorial are needed to work-around this manually. Hopefully APM will improve in this regard in the future. For purposes of comparison, Zubax GNSS 2 can be used with…"
"Hi Adam, could you please describe what exactly about configuring APM for use with Zubax GNSS 2 makes you uncomfortable? We'll try to improve our documentation based on your feedback.
Thanks!
Pavel."
Thanks!

"This tutorial covers how to configure APM for use with Zubax GNSS."
"I'm putting this answer here so everyone interested could see it. Here's the tutorial that explains how to make APM use UAVCAN-interfaced sensors, particularly Zubax GNSS."
"Yes."
"Yes, everything works, although support for barometer requires some hackery with initialization scripts on microSD card."
"Hi Thorsten,
Regarding the reports about the zubax, which has a similar shielding but is unfortunately not yet running with AC3.3rc1
It is now. We got some assistance from APM devs, and I and Randy Batchell were able to confirm that 3.3rc1 actually…"

"That's great! Glad it works for you now. I'm going to add a short tutorial to docs.zubax.com explaining how to configure APM for use with Zubax GNSS."
"Hi Randy,
Clearly this is an APM issue. Could you please provide a link to the discussion where you expect to receive the answer from the dev team? Maybe it would make sense to escalate it up to a Github issue.
Pavel."
