Hi, I'm working in a UTM (https://github.com/portableutm/dronfiesuss) and I need integrate it with mavlink.
In particular I want to define a new messages, for do that use mavgen as described in https://mavlink.io/en/getting_started/generate_libraries.html
The problem is that I don't know how use the generated py file with pymavlink. Is there a tutorial that shows how to use it?
Thanks
Hi, I am noob to programming. I am trying to send custom messages from ardupilot to GCS. I read the documentation from here https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/code-overview-adding-a-new-mavlink-message.html.
i added this to ardupilotmega.xml in ardupilot/modules/mavlink/pymavlink/dialects/v20/ardupilotmega.py
<message id="3001" name="CUSTOM_DATA">
<description>Drone Data</description>
<field type="char[50]" name="text">Status text message, without null termination character</field>
<extensions/>
<field type="uint16_t" name="id">Unique (opaque) identifier for this statustext message. May be used to reassemble a logical long-statustext message from a sequence of chunks. A value of zero indicates this is the only chunk in the sequence and the message can be emitted immediately.</field>
<field type="uint8_t" name="chunk_seq">This chunk's sequence number; indexing is from zero. Any null character in the text field is taken to mean this was the last chunk.</field>
</message>
and i reinstalled the updated pymavlink version from ardupilot.
But when I run this code this code I receive this error AttributeError: 'MAVLink' object has no attribute 'custom_data'.
This is the snippet.
from pymavlink import mavutil
import time
from pymavlink.dialects.v20 import ardupilotmega as mavlink2
the_connection = mavutil.mavlink_connection('udpout:localhost:14550')
while True:
txt = "yaaaaaaa"
the_connection.mav.custom_data_send(txt)
time.sleep(2)
Any help would be appreciative.
Hello all,
I want to control camera gimbal and camera zoom on web page,
so i write test code to control gimbal and zoom.
It was succeed to control gimbal, but it was failed to control zoom.
What's wrong with my python code?
And how i can control camera by using pymavlink?
try:
connection_string = dict_request_data['ip']
mav = mavutil.mavlink_connection('tcp:' + connection_string)
mav.wait_heartbeat()
print("HEARTBEAT OK\n")
mav.mav.command_long_send(
mav.target_system,
100,
mavutil.mavlink.MAV_CMD_DO_DIGICAM_CONTROL,
0,
1.0, 3.0, 3.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0)
print('success!!')
mav.close()
except Exception:
print('err occurred')
Above code does not throw exception, but camera does not work zoom too.
For now I have 2 during Problems :
1) When I added string --out udpin:localhost:5050,
I used it for internal usage with companion computer. After it , I run script on my companion computer

Hello, I am working on mavlink messaging integration with PX4 simulation
python3 -m pymavlink.tools.mavgen --lang=JavaScript --wire-protocol=2.0 --output=generated/include/mavlink/v2.0 message_definitions/v1.0/common.xml

please help me in this issue.
Hello, what is the best way to check the arm status of a flight controller? I found the following code but realized that it always returns TRUE even if the controller is disarmed.
def is_armed():
try:
return bool(master.wait_heartbeat().base_mode & 0b10000000)
except:
return False
:point_up: October 31, 2020 5:20 PM
I've had success using this function to check if the vehicle is armedav_armed = bool(connection.motors_armed())
connection
being a pymavlink object
Hi everyone! I have another question, but it because of poor documentation,
I have a reference about messasges:
https://mavlink.io/en/mavgen_python/
but I can't undarstand, which kind of command belong for this messages in pymavlink, is there some documentation about it?
from pymavlink import mavutil
the_connection = mavutil.mavlink_connection('udpin:localhost:14550')
print("hello")
while(1):
the_connection.wait_heartbeat()
#
print("Heartbeat from system (system %u component %u)" % (the_connection.target_system, the_connection.target_system))
**the script is running fine BUT IAM NOT GETTING any heart beat message
i havent connnected any flightcontrollers to raspberry pi is that the problem.
or is there any need of flightcontroller for this script to run the heartbeat
PLEASE HELP ....
Hi everyone, I'm needing help receiving the relative altitude of my simulated drone using pymavlink. I have a script running on a RPi which is connecting to SITL via tcp. My code is as follows:
master = mavutil.mavlink_connection('tcp:IPaddress:5762')
msg = master.recv_match(type="GLOBAL_POSITION_INT",blocking=True)
relative_alt = msg.relative_alt
I successfully get a value back, but have noticed that the altitude is outdated. My script successfully changes the altitude of the drone via RC commands and QGC accurately reflects the changing altitude in real time, but the altitude being received by my Pi lags by tens of seconds. Anyone know what might cause this lag?
This is simple code I tried but i got AtributeError "module 'pymavlink.dialects.v20.ardupilotmega' has no attribute 'POSITION_TARGET_LOCAL_NED'"
autopilot.mav.command_long_send(
autopilot.target_system, # autopilot system id
autopilot.target_component, # autopilot component id
mavutil.mavlink.SET_POSITION_TARGET_LOCAL_NED, # command id,
0, # confirmation
0, #
1,1,MAV_FRAME_BODY_OFFSET_NED,0b0000111111000111,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,2,0,0,0,0 # unused parameters for this command
)
My problem is incorrect syntax? or maybe my installed pymavlink is not in the currect place?
