Developing new Simple Ground Control Software

adam-cropp · January 27, 2020, 2:57am

Hello!

I am developing a new more simpler ground control software for ArduSub.

I have managed to get the motors working using mavlink manual control msgs.

But I am having some issues trying to get the Camera_Tilt and Lights working.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what type of mavlink msg I should be sending?

Thanks,
Adam

The joystick buttons are transmitted by MANUAL_CONTROL

The buttons are handled on the autopilot side to eg change lights here: ardupilot/joystick.cpp at master · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub
