Missing information #11
Description
Hi Mirkix!
I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this. I have followed these directions over and over for the last 4 months, so this is not without really trying to make your directions work. My issue comes when trying to access Mission Planner, the MAVlink connection always times out. I guess the problem arises somewhere between :
Prebuild ArduPilot and Run ArduPilot. There must be missing instructions.
I would like to do the "Compile ArduPilot native on BeagleBone" like you did on the BBBMini, but the checkout function responds saying that git checkout ~ is not a git repository.
Nothing addresses the "blue-arduBUILD" naming function that is rendered following these directions.
But as an aside, it would be nice to either change the run ardupilot to :
sudo /usr/bin/ardupilot/blue-arducopter
or show the step how you got to:
sudo /home/debian/arducopter
To add a step, that these directions are missing (from the bbbmini page - modified):
"scp /usr/bin/ardupilot/* scp debian@beaglebone:/home/debian/"
I've never posted on one of these, but maybe if you could clarify some of these points, it would make life easier for someone else. Also, great pic of where to put the E4 pin. I had to hunt that down here:
