Issue Configuring Pixhawk 6C for "Aion Robotics R1 UGV" Rover

PX4 Autopilot
1

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue when configuring my Pixhawk 6C with the “Aion Robotics R1 UGV” rover type. After selecting this vehicle type in QGroundControl and rebooting the Pixhawk, the Airframe section remains unconfigured, and the setup doesn’t work correctly. However, when I select the “Ackermann” vehicle type, everything works fine, and the rover responds correctly to the commands.

Here are some details:

  • PX4 Pro v1.15.4 Firmware
  • Vehicle: Aion Robotics R1 UGV
  • Observed Behavior: After selecting the “Aion Robotics R1 UGV” rover type and rebooting the Pixhawk, the Airframe section remains unconfigured. This issue does not occur when I select the “Ackermann” type.

I have checked several parameters in QGroundControl, but I haven’t been able to resolve this problem. I’ve attached a screenshot illustrating the issue. Could you please guide me on the steps or parameters I need to adjust to resolve this issue?

Thank you for your help. I am available to provide additional information or logs if necessary.

Hi @Mohamed_amine_Benfar,

To use the rover modules you need to flash the main branch of PX4 onto your flight controller, since they are not part of any v1.15 releases. Check this documentation out to guide you through the process.

Afterwards you should be able to set up your rover with the help of this documentation.
