Hey guys ! I am a newbie in drone world. I’ m resourcing about my thesis. So, I have a few questions about pixhawk. I want to control my drone from a companion computer. I want to do whatever I will do, from a computer (like FPV, tracking or follow me). Every data that will process must process in …

a lot easier just to do this… http://4gmetry.voltarobots.com/

You might also want to check out Sky Drone FPV 2 . It streams video and data over LTE out of the box and is optimized for MAVLink.

Hi there. I can´t find much documentation and experiences about this module. So what are you capable to do with this? I get the picture from 4Gmetry website and I can see a FrSky receiver there… I´m really confused. If you are using 4g telemetry unit, why would you need an RC receiver ?? [image]

yes you would still want a FrSky RX as a primary flght control…they are very cheap so why wouldnt you

Can´t you do primary flight control trough 4G telemetry? That´s the issue I have. What´s is the difference between primary flight control and telemetry?

Be carefule. 4Gmetry does not support PX4 flight stack but Ardupilot in Pixhawk. You can make this device just via installing gstreamer, mavproxy on Odroid XU4.

@cumbaba10 If you have a companion computer with the pixhawk, using 4G for telemetry / LTE is quite straight forward. You can use mavlink-router to route your telemetry and use gstreamer to stream video over LTE and to QGC

Can I use mission planner? Is there any documentation? How to use mavlink router and gstreamer? I’ve pixhawk 2.1 cube and RPi 3. Currently I’m using it for Mavproxy and dronekit python. I need to connect pixhawk to mission planner using LTE for long range. Please share a link or documents if you…

@crisdeodates I would say it is quite widely used, and it is more of a problem of routing mavlink packets rather than related to the PX4 flight stack itself.
