Good day!
I’m using PX4_FMU_V3 1.11.3 and trying to read “STATUSTEXT” messages through TELEM port.
I see QGC is receiving those messages, but if I’m connected as Onboard companion controller, messages doesn’t come. With help of MAV_CMD_REQUEST_MESSAGE I’m also unable to get those messages. How it’s possible to ask for “STATUSTEXT” message?
Hi @Developer,
Could you make it work? I have the same problem, using mavsdk-python to receive the messages. All other message is received that I have tried, except statustext, which in the same time appears in QGC. I have tried all the different severity level for it too, with no success.
Hello @Safranek42! No, at moment when I need those messages I changed MAV_TYPE in heartbeat as MAV_TYPE_GCS (6). For now it works, other than that, there’s needed changes somewhere in source code.
Try to set the mavros conn/heartbeat_mav_type:
<arg name="pluginlists_yaml" value="$(find mavros)/launch/px4_pluginlists.yaml" />
<arg name="config_yaml" value="$(find mavros)/launch/px4_config.yaml" />
<node pkg="mavros" type="mavros_node" name="mavros" required="false" clear_params="true" output="screen" respawn="false">
<param name="fcu_url" value="$(arg fcu_url)" />
<param name="gcs_url" value="" />
<param name="target_system_id" value="$(arg ID)" />
<param name="target_component_id" value="1" />
<param name="fcu_protocol" value="v2.0" />
<!-- load blacklist, config -->
<rosparam command="load" file="$(arg pluginlists_yaml)" />
<rosparam command="load" file="$(arg config_yaml)" />
<param name="conn/heartbeat_mav_type" value="GCS"/> <!--added to receive statustext-->
