Great thanks for pinging @bperseghetti! I have seen this issue and wonder if it is related.
In the meantime, Iâve tried to implement a âquick fixâ by extracting the x500_1
from the model name connected_group/model/x500_1
and using that instead of the _model_name
parameter to pass into the esc and servo .init calls (lines 184 and 189 of GZBridge respectively). This appears to give me the correct /model/x500_1/servo_<x>
and /x500_1/command/motor_speed
topics in the gz topic -l
output. It also allows me to send commands to the nested drone and have it take off (without a âshadow droneâ)!
Further, in an attempt to quick fix the fake GPS/magnetometer issue, I also changed line 475 to the extracted name x500_1
. Without this fix, the commander never gives me the âready for takeoffâ message. With it however, although I am able to take-off, the drone just continues to rise so I guess I am not getting accurate position feedback. Any idea on how to either quickly or properly fix this?
I have also tried the opposite approach i.e. setting PX4_GZ_MODEL_NAME=x500_1
and prefixing all other topics in GZBridge with connected_group/model/
and get the same result. I guess I donât understand how PX4 is acquiring the position groundtruth?
Thanks for your help so far - much appreciated!
