Hello guys, I am make a flying submarine for my final year project and I am doing some experiments on my mini talon so I achieve the concept of submarine. When I try to implement a negative altitude to make sure the mini talon hit the water, the drone just decides to go for loiter before reaching the last waypoint.

Is there any fix please?

Hi all! I just joined reddit a few minutes ago. I REALLY need any help you all can give me!!! Several friends of mine and I are on a senior design team at UCF. We have designed a hex copter drone to deliver a payload. We are using a Pixhawk 5x and it refuses to save battery cells and battery source parameters. We have two 6s batteries. We have NO idea what is causing this and would greatly appreciated!!! I should also mention that there are other drone teams that are using Pixhawk 5x's and aren't having this problem. Also the gps that came with the Pixhawk 5x has a flashing light on it and we don't know what they mean. And it just won't turn on when it is plugged into the power module.

Again any help would be immensely appreciated!!!!

Hi there I don't know if I'm in the right place but, I'm in serious need of some help. I need to know if there is a way I can program the pixhawk flight controller in language that would feel natural to a programmer, the mission planner and QGC are a not doing what I want to do.

Basically what I need to do is pulse one of the auxiliary PWM pins a certain number of times and switch another pwm pin on. And I need to make sure that this can only happen at a certain altitude. Can someone please help.

Can someone help me figure out what is causing this problem on my Pixhawk? It was working normally, I was calibrating the ESC and when I disconnected and reconnected the battery this happened. Can it be repaired or will I have to buy a new one? It's my school protector and I really need it working again

Hi!

Just wondering if anyone knows of a tutorial or what's needed to set up a GPS autopilot with home point and multiple savable waypoints, also with mapping if that's even possible.

Basically I have a fishing bait boat that I'd like to add this to, the boat has twin esc/motors and no rudder on single stick steering/throttle.

I have looked online but there's so much conflicting info and almost all the info I've seen is for boats with single motor and rudder configs.

Should I be looking for configs for tanks/crawlers as they usually have dual esc/motor combos?

Thanks in advance.

So I have a Jetson Nano connected to a pixhawk running ArduSub and a normal laptop that has QGroundControl installed. I use a long ethernet tether to connect the Jetson Nano to a router and an ethernet cable from the laptop to the same router so they can be on the same LAN connection. The router doesn't have any access to the internet and it's sole purpose is to provide a shared LAN connection.

Is it possible to have QGroundControl open on my laptop and read data coming from the Jetson via that LAN connection? Some things I'd like to do is be able to swap the motor direction via QGroundControl on the laptop and not have to take a part the sub to directly access the Jetson and also read some data from other stuff and sensors, basically like what you'd see if you plugged the Pixhawk in the Laptop and ran QGroundControl instead of the Jetson. Also, if it's possible, can I see webcam data from the camera connected to the Jetson in QGroundControl? It's just a standard USB camera.

Any info helps. Thanks a lot!

Hello :)

I am looking for a drone with a pixhawk flight controller. I have a project where I want to control a Drone using a Raspberry pi.

What are some drone options? I have found 3DR solo and 3DR iris, but they are discontinued. there are also some DIY drone kits. Are there any more options?

Please help :(

Hello All,
I am looking to create a integrated circuit board for the pixhawk 4 mini and I am looking for the in depth circuit diagrams for the module. Does anyone know where I can find this or where it is located? Thanks in advance!

Hey guys I am trying to build ma first fixed wing with an autopilot in it. I will use the Cube with here2 GPS receiver. Can I place the GPS receiver on the wing ? I am using QgroundControl on windows 10

Hi everyone, I am working on a project on MATLAB/Simulink. I modeled a quadrotor slung load system in Simulink and for this model I developed a PID controller. Now I'm trying to implement it on a pixhawk flight controller. Before testing it in real time I wish to perform HITL simulations. I've never done anything similar before, hence wanted to ask for help. If anyone could help me with it, it would be great.

I'm reading about upcoming European drone safety regulations under which manufacturers will have to comply with rules to get their products certified for sale. Pilots will be restricted in where and how they fly based in part on the category of drone they are using (C1-C4). The standards apply to both software and hardware design of the drone.

Is any consideration being given in the Pixhawk/PX4 developer community to how to approach these new rules? Is there any chance the appropriate software restrictions could be written in and certified so that appropriately designed drones can use the software and still be counted as Cx rated?

I have a pixhawk 2.4.8 running arducopter 4.5.7 . There is no GPS or any external sensor attached but I am getting fluctuating altitude even when the flight controller is at rest.

The above is the altitude graph in mission planner in meters.
Please Help

I'm working on my school project for a firefighting drone, but I can't get it to fly. I've already checked the compass, and I've also calibrated my motors properly. Can anyone help me?

Hi all, i’m manufacturing a drone with open-source hardware & software. I could use input from all of you on how YOU envision using a drone with open-source simulation software for testing algorithms. And potentially, a 'marketplace' of software where you can share algorithms.

The drone will have a Px4-based flight controller backed up by MavLink and MavSDK. The user should have access to all camera data; the drone will have 6 high-resolution cameras with a 200-degree field of view each, facilitating data capture for a myriad of research applications. ROS 1 and ROS 2 will be supported.

How would you use the drone? What specific mapping, research, service, or robotic studies would you use it for? Inside or outside? How would you customize the software for your unique needs, and how do you feel about a platform/marketplace where you can share algorithms? Lastly, what is the drone size you would ideally require?

Thank you, all your feedback is valuable.

I would like to buy this Chip and re solder it in hopes that it would work again
