Man your voice is so soothing to hear. And the editing is perfect to follow. Step by step guide is on point. Really deserve top views and likes for this RU-vid category.
clear and concise. as a newbie, this was really needed. especially when it comes to the running commands and their meaning.. reading code is my second fear, fist is algebra. thanks a lot, subbed.
Great video. At Honeywell we use the Cube Orange and the Jetson Xavier NX combo. We don't bother with the GPIO header and just go straight from the Jetson's USB to the Cube's microUSB. Works fantastic.
Great tutorial man, that's gonna really help me out later. I see you cut the 5V wire, but I also would like to know, is the PixHawk capable of supplying the full 20W range specified for the Nano through the telem2 port? That would be really handy as I want to install the board to the drone itself. And I'm not sure that I trust the PixHawk board will permit that power draw... Edit: Figured I would use a buck converter from the battery instead, that way I can guarantee that it is capable
would you please make a video how i can make a indoor flying drone who perform like a flying robot . like if i want i can move a glass of water from one room to another room using this drone and put the glass in another room in accurate position . And what types of hardware is needed to be done to make this. Like Jetson Nano , pixhawk 2.4.8 , GPS and last thing how i can control it auto by using laptop or computers . by the way i cant write English properly so hope you kindly forgive me if i make some mistake to write this . I will be waiting for your video .Carry on brother .
Hello Sir, your videos are very useful. Thank you very much I am newbie to Drone building DIY. I have Pixhawk 2.4.8 and wanted to use it with 4-in-1 ESC along with Raspberry PI 4 or 5. I watched all the videos out there on this scenario and all of them uses individual ESC's for each motors. I came across encoder to use but surely not understand it. I watched this video about connecting Raspberry PI to Pixhawk so I think I am okay there but not connecting 4-in-1 ESC to Pixhawk. Would you be able to suggest how I can get 4-in-1 ESC connected to Pixhawk? Or if you could do a video on it, would be awesome. Thank you so much for all your help in advance sir.
Thanks! So wire strippers… I do have one in a box, that is incredibly frustrating to get into 😅 Since I don’t have a PO Box etc, I am pretty uncomfortable giving out my address online, but I *seriously* appreciate the sentiment!
I can show you a fully functioning system using this if you wanted! This is the source code for Stanley, an autonomous drone using an RPi for the companion computer: github.com/Matchstic/stanley
Hey, I have an AI model running on raspberry pi 0 2w, and the flight controller I have is the same as pixhawk 2.4.8. What are the benefits if I connect the raspberry pi to pixhawk ? I have seen how to connect, but what I fail to understand is, in my use case scenario will it be beneficial ?
Hi sir, Please give me a feedback. How can I connect my jetson nano with pixhawk cube orange on python scripts, using dronekit ? Actually I know about the software side but I need to help to hardware side.
If I had access to one, sure! That said, in theory you can adapt the instructions in this video for the Orange Pi. This looks to be the pinout for the Orange 5: www.orangepi.org/img/pi-5-pin-definition.png I imagine its a case of ensuring the TX and RX jumper wires of the serial wire I showed to the pins marked UART3 - ensure the TX jumper goes to the RX GPIO! In software, it looks like that would map to /dev/ttyS3. See here for where I'm pulling that info (which is for the R1): learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-on-orangepi-linux/uart-serial#the-hard-way-using-built-in-uart-3010837 Additionally, you may need to enable UART - see here (again, for the R1): learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-on-orangepi-linux/orange-pi-r1#enable-uart-i2c-and-spi-3029848 TLDR; make sure to enable UART if needed, and connect to the relevant GPIO headers with the serial cable I showed in my video
Hey, thank you so much for guiding me just like WOW! I am thinking about how can we connect the companion computer pi or Jetson, with Pixhawk using their micro-USB cable, I have seen a guy who is connecting, can we do it after following all the commands provided by you or there is another configuration need for that...
You can technically use the micro-USB cable for serial but be aware that it disables some safety checks - for example, ArduPilot will assume it is not connected to a battery when using the USB link, and disables all battery failsafes.
i have quastion for you what frame and vehicle do you use on your pixhawk and how do you upload it? i use simonhardware and upload it on linux but i didnt get the same result as you for example the AP:... commands i get some #%$#EREGF$F and some EPK and GPS ... |'ll be glad if you help me
Hi mr. Matt, I have some questions about coding RP4 with PixHawk. We are trying to making a VTOL UAV and it has a simple task that it will change servo angle at the determined location and altitude. So, I want write a code for RP4 that will get this mission. How can I do that, can u help me? I am an amateur on RP4. Do you have some simple examples about that? :)
hello, thanks for this informative video 🙋🏻♂️ i need to ask that, can i do the same steps for jetson xavier nx ? and also i need to give the power supply from a lipo batterry how can i do that? does anybody here to help me?
I’d imagine the exact same steps will work for Xavier - just make sure your GPIO connection is correct! For the Lipo battery, I’d recommend looking into using a UBEC to source a good supply of 5V, then power the device from that - this is what I did for my drone using the Jetson Nano
Cheers! I would expect so, just double check the GPIO layout before you do. There may also be a need to enable appropriate hardware like for the Raspberry Pi via a config file
Hi, when I tried to run this command: sudo pip install PyYAML mavproxy, I got an error that said the SSL Certificate Verify failed. How could I fix this?
hai how u connected jetson nano without cable to pc and is there any files how to access jetson and can u sujected me which is better rasberry pi or jetson nano for pixhawk AI control
I used SSH to run commands on both the Jetson Nano and Raspberry Pi. If you’re looking for longer flight times, the Raspberry Pi would be preferable due to less power requirements. It’s all down to your project’s requirements really!
Depends on your goal to be honest. I used DroneKit in a project to send commands from a companion computer over Python. Setup looked like this: My Python program -> DroneKit -> MAVProxy running locally -> PixHawk If you’re using DroneKit and don’t need MAVProxy to eg also forward data to a ground station, you can actually skip MAVProxy and connect directly to the serial port. With MAVProxy on its own, you can connect it up to anything that works with MAVLink data over the network. Eg multiple ground stations If used on its own, you’ll still be able to send commands to PX4 on the PixHawk. DroneKit is one source that can send those commands
In theory, yes! Looking at the documentation (ardupilot.org/plane/docs/common-mamba-basic-mk3.html ), you’ll need to solder the jumper wires directly to the board. I’m not 100% certain of the pins you need to solder to though. That docs page seems to suggest that the RX6 and TX6 pins are available for this, as well as any available Ground pin. As per the video, make sure you connect the soldered RX connection on the board to the TX GPIO pin, and the equivalent for TX to RX GPIO. In your autopilot parameters, you may need to update the relevant serial port’s protocol to 2 to get MAVLink messages flowing.
Sounds like one of the following: - the RX and TX pins are connected the wrong way around on the GPIO header - you’re using the wrong serial port (run the following to see available ones: ls /dev) - the cable is not soldered properly - the cable is not connected to the right telemetry port on the PixHawk (or equivalent)
@@chiuanshin1987 Yes, I solved. The problem is depend on the cables of rx,th,ground connection. You should connect the rx to tx, tx to rx and ground to ground, for communication. If your problem will continue I can help you on zoom or any video conference application.
