MAVProxy modules

This folder contains modules for MAVProxy specifically for ArduPilot. Add the path to this folder to your PYTHONPATH in order to use it.

Modules

sitl_calibration

This module interfaces with the calibration model of SITL. It provides commands to actuate on the vehicle's rotation to simulate a calibration process.

Make sure to pass --model calibration to the SITL binary in order to be able use this module's commands. You can also use [sim_vehicle.py](../autotest/sim_vehicle.py) with --frame calibration.

Accelerometer Calibration

The command sitl_accelcal listens to the accelerometer calibration status texts and set the vehicle in the desired attitude. Example:

accelcal
sitl_accelcal

Compass Calibration

The command sitl_magcal applies angular velocity on the vehicle in order to get the compasses calibrated. Example:

magcal start
sitl_magcal

Other commands

There are other commands you can use with this module:

  • sitl_attitude: set vehicle at a desired attitude
  • sitl_angvel: apply angular velocity on the vehicle
  • sitl_stop: stop any of this module's currently active command
