SITL-on-HW notes

Compiling and flashing

Run the sitl-on-hw.sh script to compile and flash for MatekH743. Adjust for your own board if required before running. This script will configure a build ready for running SITL-on-hardware and attempt to upload it to a connected board. It includes a set of embedded parameters to configure the simulated sensors appropriately.

::

cd $HOME/ardupilot
./libraries/SITL/examples/on-hardware/sitl-on-hw.py --board	MatekH743 --vehicle copter

Plane can also be simulated:

::

cd $HOME/ardupilot
./libraries/SITL/examples/on-hardware/sitl-on-hw.py --board MatekH743 --vehicle plane

and quadplane:

::

cd $HOME/ardupilot
./libraries/SITL/examples/on-hardware/sitl-on-hw.py --board MatekH743 --vehicle plane --simclass QuadPlane

Configuring

Wipe the parameters on the board; this can be done with a mavlink command, or by setting the FORMAT_VERSION parameter to 0.

For example:

::

STABILIZE> wipe_parameters IREALLYMEAANIT
STABILIZE> Got COMMAND_ACK: PREFLIGHT_STORAGE: ACCEPTED
AP: All parameters reset, reboot board
reboot

You may need to power-cycle the board at this point.
