Hi @harshmattoo9909 -
No need to even use two PCs -QGC lets you easily control two BlueBoats! Here are the steps to get it setup:
- Turn on BlueBoat 1, and install proxy extension. Use this to reach 192.168.2.4 (BlueBoat Radio, and adjust its IP address to 192.168.2.14.
- Navigate to BlueOS, and modify the static IP - change from192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.12.
- Under Autopilot Parameters, change the Mav System ID to a different # - increment by one or more.
- Turn on BlueBoat 2, and if not done already, follow standard radio setup instructions to connect it to the same BaseStation.
- Open QGC with your computer connected to the system with an IP of 192.168.2.1- both vehicles will connect, and you can switch between them via the dropdown!
If you need 2 computers to control instead of one, simply add a MavLink Endpoint to UDP Client target the second computer’s IP address.
You can also configure group formation / follow operation!
