Simulating an antenna tracker
-----------------------------
To run a full antenna tracker simulation with a simulated APM:Plane as
the vehicle, cd to the ArduPlane directory and run this:
../Tools/autotest/sim_arduplane.sh -T --aircraft test
The -T flag tells sim_arduplane.sh to start an entenna tracker
simulator and also start a virtual antenna tracker in a window.
To start the antenna tracker running run "tracker start" in the
mavproxy window.
To then connect to your antenna tracker with mavproxy you would run:
mavproxy.py --master tcp:127.0.0.1:5770
then you can configure it as needed.
