Hi @MokhtarYahia,

I’d recommend starting with our [Pymavlink examples](https://www.ardusub.com/developers/pymavlink.html).

You may also be interested in [this full example program](https://gist.github.com/ES-Alexander/ee1dd479dd728b7cef1bf936f9114e71#file-rc_override_example-py), which sets up a regular heartbeat, and controls the motion a bit while printing the thruster output values. If you want to use it, make sure to read the [notes](https://gist.github.com/ES-Alexander/ee1dd479dd728b7cef1bf936f9114e71?permalink_comment_id=3939968#gistcomment-3939968) at the bottom 🙂
