Hello, Im working on ROV project using pi3+pixhawk The Pi is already setup and flashed with the latest Ardusub-Raspbian image (12/01/2017) All is fine and well when the Pixhawk is directly connected to the host computer (laptop) through USB compas and gps calibrations made without major troubles But when i connect to pi from to laptop (using ethernet to usb adaptor ), there is no reaction only a red flashing light on pi and the pixhawk still off when connected via usb to raspberry pi. Raspberry is powered by 5v 3000ma source. Even with putty i can’t connect to raspberry. All the settings were made as in ardusub manual. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance (sorry for that poor english) ---

If there is no ssh, it looks like the Raspberry Pi is not booting properly. Try another usb cable/power source. Some power sources provide slightly under 5 V, and some of it can be lost in the cable’s resistance. ModMyPi, for example, ships theirs with 5.1 V and 2.5 A power sources. ---

Hi Ezzeddine, You can check the status of the raspberry pi b+ development here: > > > Update image to support RPi 3 Model B+ hardware. Right now we don’t have plans to create a working image with it, but you should be able to install companion via our [repository here](https://github.com/bluerobotics/companion), problem can be found though. We recommend to use the older version. ---

Yes, it’s compatible with Raspberry Pi 3 model **B** but not with the Raspberry Pi Model **B+**. [Previous page](https://discuss.bluerobotics.com/t/qgroundcontrol-and-raspberry-pi-through-ssh/738.md?page=1)
