Hi All,
Before posting an issue or a problem in the ArduRover Discussion Forum, please check the wiki table of contents, review the firmware release notes in the subforum, and search that subforum for existing answers to your question. Help avoid duplicate threads by finding other members with the same issue and their solution.
When formulating your post, use a descriptive title such as "rover will not navigate to waypoints in the Auto mode" (not "HELP!" or "Problem").

Hi, i am looking to build a new rover, but i need some advice on the chassis. I like the 4wd chassis/tank look and prefer it over the crawler/rc look.are those any good though? most people recommend crawlers.I am looking to get something from banggood, any advice will be highly appreciated. thanks
Read more…Hi all, I have a skid steer robot using a pixhawk cube, one 1x15 roboclaw motor controller and a dagu wild thumper 4 wheel chassis. I have skid steering working so far, testing motor c and motor d tests works as described and the vehicle can be controlled in manual mode. However, upon using any mode other than manual mode the rover wants to shake and pivot on the spot, and it seems the steering PID controller oscillates and these oscillations get larger. i have tried everything but it is still…
Read more…Hi,I have converted a Traxxas X-Maxx into a rover using the Pixhawk Cube 2 controller kit with a Here GNSS.I swapped out the original X-Maxx remote controller for an X6R receiver and Taranis QX7 radio.latest version of ArduRover firmware installed as of 8/11/18. The rover has an EZRun Max6 ESC. The problem now is the ESC control over the transition into reverse. The ESC is currently set to it's Running Mode Option 2: "Forward/Reverse with Break", AKA the "Double Click Method".What this mode…
Read more…Hi all.I know this is an Adurover group, but Thought I would reach out and try my odds for some help as I'm perplexed by this problem. I have a Traxxas X-Maxx set up with a Pixhawk Cube 2.1 and the Here GPS. I'm using a Tarranis X7 remote controller and a X8R Sbus Receiver. I'm using QGroundControl with the latest, Pixhawk 1.8.0 Firmware with the Generic Rover airframe profile installed. As instructed, I have Steering servo wired into Main 2 and Throttle ESC wired into Main 4. Sensors are…

@saba,
How are you powering your APM? Are you using the PM and have removed J1?
How are you powering the APM servo outputs? Are you using an ESC to power the APM servo outputs?

daer all
my Forward/ Reverse output channel is not continuous. i have to reconnect power(USB) when it stuck. My firmware is ArduRover_v230_firmware_20130321ss2. I have performed all CLI, Radio reset.

For anyone else who wants to know this answer as they try to plan out their purchases, I have found out today that a 3 position toggle is not mandatory if you dont mind setting the mode (Normal/Auto/Learn) via Telemetry with a Laptop/PC.
Moving forward with my build, I will be keeping the DX5e an setting the 2 position toggle with Normal an Auto. I will set the APM into learn mode via my PC when needed.
Next weekends plan will be to get the new Receiver installed an purchase the APM 2.5 w/Telemetry kit as well as a FPV setup. Then start planning the install on my Crawler which is a Axial SCX10 Jeep Rubicon.

@Rory,
As far as I know Tridge had only one common Sonar_Trigger value for both Sonars. I know that both sonars were functional in the steering mode, but have never tried using them in the auto mode yet. I will mention this issue at the ArduRover2 code hacking meeting this Thursday.

is there a separate setting for Sonar_Trigger_cm for sonar2? in my tests in terminal both IR are working but in Auto mode only Sonar (1) will trigger obstacle avoidance?
thanks thomas. i really appreciate your help for this forum.
best regards

@saba,
Yes, the Traxxas Stampede will work for you. It is very much like my Traxxas Slash as it has the same motor/ESC and servo steering.

pl advise about the vehicle

my interface b/w ardupilot and DC motor(steering mechanism) is not accurate. that's why i am searching the exact compatable vehicle??
thanks

@Austin,
Here is a picture of my Arduino IDE Preference page and you can see my Sketch path at the top of the Preference page.
Hope this helps.
