flyingros_nav

flyingros_nav is the navigation package. This is still experimental and is subject to change (specifically ondemand, issues, etc.).

Navigation methods

• rosrun flyingros_nav task_node
  • Uses tasks.py
  • ROS interface
  • Only sends setpoints
  • Works better with the web interface using rosbridge
• rosrun flyingros_nav nav_application
  • Uses tasks.py
  • Uses task_node (should be started first)
  • Runs on the odroid and uses URWID to give a SSH friendly interface
• rosrun flyingros_nav control_thread.py
  • Minimal offboard interface
  • Only uses the python console
  • Great for debugging and testing

How it works

• Navigation nodes should be able to :
  • Arm/Disarm
  • Can implement landing/takeoff methods
  • Send setpoints to mavros/setpoint_position/local or any mavros/setpoint_*/local.

Available JSON scenari

JSON missions are sent though the web application (flyingros_web) via the task_node

• scenario_web_circle.json - Make a circle
• scenario_web_square.json - Make a square
