Hi Eliot,

I took your input and edited my code for reading out the parameters, as presented here:

import time
import sys

# Import mavutil
from pymavlink import mavutil

# Create the connection
master = mavutil.mavlink_connection('udpin:0.0.0.0:505')
master.wait_heartbeat()  # Wait a heartbeat before sending commands or trying to send or recieve new data
print("Heartbeat from system (system %u component %u)" % (master.target_system, master.target_system))
# Wait a heartbeat before sending commands
master.wait_heartbeat()

# Request all parameters
master.mav.param_request_list_send(
    master.target_system, master.target_component
)

while True:
    time.sleep(0.01)
    try:
        message = master.recv_match(type='PARAM_VALUE', blocking=True).to_dict()
        name, value = message['param_id'], message['param_value']
        print('name: %s\tvalue: %.3f' % (message['param_id'], message['param_value']))
        
    except Exception as error:
        print(error)
        sys.exit(0)

The read parameters from ArduSub made more sense. I couldn’t compile my code with the “python3” command. I followed the installation guide; GitHub - ArduPilot/pymavlink: python MAVLink interface and utilities My python version is 2.7.16 and python3 version is 3.9.7. It’s clear that Pymavlink assumes the command “python” is my path.

By the way, I also read your instructions on How to Use the Blue Robotics Forums (Please Read).

Thank you!
