I saw the older post on support for pixhawk 4, but that was when ArduSub was as 3.5. Does the current version of ArduSub support Pixhawk 4? Thanks

Hi Joe, As per the ArduSub docs (see the “Supported Hardware” section on that page), ArduSub is officially supported on only the Pixhawk 1 (PX4-v2), but it may also work for some/many of the other boards that ArduPilot can run on. There are pre-built binaries for various different boards , but they…

Thanks Eliot, I cannot find any vendor that still sells the Pixhawk 1, other than cheap import models. They indicate that that version is discontinued. Blue Robotics only sells the whole kit. Currently I do not need the Fathom-X Tether Interface or the PI. Do you know where I can purchase a Pixha…

@EliotBR @jpitz Hello guys. Yes, i can confirm, that ArduSub 4+ is working on Pixhawk4 fmuv5 board (At least motors (but with uavcan), i2c external sensors, camera, gripper, lights, battery charge viewing and etc). Most functions are working from the box, but some of them need some changes (with wir…

After doing some tests in the pool, i can confirm, that ardusub is working good on pixhawk4 fmuv5 board.

Hi @hydropumpon ! Would you be able to elaborate on what changes were required to integrate with the Pixhawk 4? I haven’t seen many others posting successful results, which is surprising with the Pixhawk 1 reaching EOL. I’ve had mixed results with the auxiliary servos, but no luck with main motors o…

Hi @droneswithgooglyeyes , welcome to the forum :slight_smile: We’ve just released ArduSub 4.1 as the new stable, which adds support for the Pixhawk 4 and our new Navigator flight controller. There’ll be a post about it in the next couple of days.

@droneswithgooglyeyes Hello, sorry for long time no reply. I almost didn’t change anything in Ardusub for pixhawk4 for simple motor working. As i remember, to make it work, i’ve just changed the ROV structure accordingly to my setup and setup required amount of drives enabled in QGC. And motors con…

Hey @hydropumpon, no worries at all. This post helped get the motors running with joystick controls. Now I just need to revert some parameters to our specs to be up and running. We’ve had some success with both v4.1 and v4.2-dev of the firmware.
