Precision Landing on 1.8.0

PX4 Autopilot
1

Hii @DevTeam @rroche

I am using px4 version 1.8.0 and want to test the precision landing feature. When I test the feature on sitl gazebo using the command make posix_sitl_default gazebo_iris_irlock it works fine. But when I mount the IRLOCK (Pixy R1.3A) on a drone and placed the beacon on the ground and perform a precision landing but unable to get the expected behavior not met. I already set the parameter
PLD_BTOUT 20
PLD_FAPPR_ALT 5
PLD_HACC_RAD 10
PLD_MAX_SRCH 50
PLD_SRCH_ALT 10
PLD_SRCH_TOUT 50

and set mavlink command parameter MAV_NAV_LAND param2 = 2. I also run the precision landing 5 to 7 times. It searches the beacon but can’t find it.

And when I listen the irlock_report topic on mavlink console it gives the data.

Please suggest to me where I am doing wrong or missing any things.

If anyone tested this feature on HITL please guide me on how you have tested it?

@Atul_Tiwari I don’t think that anyone these days will provide you support to such an old release of PX4. You should move to a much younger release (like 1.11) and start from there.
