Now I understand what you ment. I got it working using the info from another topic about the same problem: [image] GCC-6 compiler cannot be located eventhough installed Ardupilot is currently building Linux firmwares with gcc 7.5.0. You can specify a toolchain using the --toolchain argument for…

Hi @BjornAU , welcome to the forum :slight_smile: [image] BjornAU: I’m building an underwater drone that steers like a plane. So therefore I’m trying to make a firmware build, combining the safety features of the SUB, with the steering of the plane, firmware. Sounds like an interesting proje…

The way I did it was; ran: ./waf configure --board navigator ran: ./waf sub I took the ardusub build from build/navigator/bin/ and uploaded it to the navigator board thru the BlueOS web interface. I restarted the board and rebooted the RPi. when it was booted up the heartbeat was lost, and I cou…

@BjornAU double check your gcc version, I recommend 9.2.1. Newer ones cause glibc issues in the Pi.

I need a little more help. I’m trying to control a towed underwater glider, that I’m developing and building for Claus Melvad at Aarhus University. I have tried installing the firmware from the menu in BlueOS, with this firmware, I have a heartbeat in BlueOS and a connection to QGC_9.2.1. Then b…

Well this time it does’nt compile. Here’s what I have done : I downloaded gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz under windows unziped it and copied the gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.tar on my wsl in home. [image] I am probably doing this the wrong way…

Did you UnZip it in windows or thru WLS? That might cause a problem. Also I cant remember but I thin I ended up putting it in the ardupilot/opt for it to work.
