When the FC is connected, the dropdown to change the waypoint type in the mission editor will close straight away. If the FC is disconnected, the dropdown stays open and the wpt type can be changed (e.g RTH). Right clicking on the wpt in the map view works whether the FC is connected or not.

FC = Omnibus F4 V3
Linux = Linux Mint 18.3

Currently, mwp's dbus server only does one thing, load a buffer of XML as a mission (for mwp-area-planner 'publish').

This capability should be expanded to (e.g.)

• Upload / verify a mission
• start / stop serial comms
• other stuff

I'm unable to run replay_bbox_ltm.rb on Linux Mint 17.3 with Xfce (Debian)

Tried both ruby2.0 and ruby 2.2. Every time I get

replay_bbox_ltm.rb --fd 18 -i 1 -t 3 -f /home/pawel/Downloads/BBlog sobota 2.TXT

/usr/bin/replay_bbox_ltm.rb:374:in `initialize': Bad file descriptor (Errno::EBADF)
    from /usr/bin/replay_bbox_ltm.rb:374:in `new'
    from /usr/bin/replay_bbox_ltm.rb:374:in `<main>'

All other tools seems to be working fine

After updating mwptools by using command "git pull && make && sudo make install" ,its shutting down by itself after i try to open a log file.I am running ubuntu 18.04 LTS on a latest oracle VM virtualbox on win10.It was working fine before the update.

As i am not familiar with the Linux,please guide me how to get the log file(if needed to diagnose).Thanks

Important will be also a clear planning of battery swaps during the mission.

Hello stronnag, I am trying to implement mission planning using mwptool but always get error saying "number of waypoints(4) exceeds maximum(0) ". I am using naze32 rev6 board with inav 1.6 version.

I hate XML with a vengeance, and for the area tool mission pass-through something lighter than XML would be nice.

So instead of:

OS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS running via VMware Player
System installed: $ sudo make install
FC: Naze32 rev6 full version
Firmware: inav 1.1
Quadcopter is flying perfectly with Alt-Hold, Pos-Hold, RTH.

Here are the steps I did:

1. create mission
2. upload mission
3. message box "Mission Validated" appears
4. click ok
5. exit mwp, but FC remains connected to USB.
6. rerun mwp (sudo mwp)
7. connect to FC (successful. I can see flight view updated)
8. download mission
9. mission is shown in Tote

But, if I power off the FC i.e. unplug USB/battery, then reconnect USB/battery and try to download mission, nothing is shown in Tote.

It seems mission is lost after power recycled.

Thoughts please.

I've been trying to get this to install and it just keeps throwing this error.

If you use a Taranis radio you may be interested to know that a collaborative effort is taking place to understand and use the telemetry that is available from a Taranis TX serial port. See https://github.com/opentx/opentx/wiki/Taranis-I-O-ports for details on how to use the serial port in your radio.

The intention is that S.port telemetry would be usable in mwp and ezgui. Currently, pretty much all we know about decoding this data can be seen the mwptools/samples/frsky directory. Frsky's proprietary (requiring an NDA) attitude is not helpful in this regard.

If you interested in using s.port telemetry source in mwp or one of the other iNav ground stations and you have a Taranis TX, you can help by providing sample data, preferable a captured data file accompanied by a blackbox log.

Suitable tools to capture the log data include the ttycap tool included with mwptools, mwptools/samples/ttycap, or putty on Windows.

Please either link your data into the issue, or PM @stronnag if you want the data to be treated as private.

Hi,

Lighttelemetry as the name implies is a lite-weight protocol for data transmission developed by KipK (mwii and other forums) for use with ground-osd and antenna tracking (ghettosd and ghettostation on github -> https://github.com/KipK/Ghettostation/wiki)

It uses either 1200 or 2400 baud to send all the info so it vastly improves the range if using OpenLRSng for both rc&telemetry, over for example using a more elaborate protocol like MSP. Same implies also for 3DR radios.

So my question is could you/would you implement it just for displaying the uav data (gps position, speed, flight modes etc.), so not bidirectional, just unidirectional..Basically a GUI for lightelemetry is missing, it would be really cool if it would be available.
Thanks!

for some reason it wasn't logging even though it was turned on, but I have it setup MSP / LTM, it works fine, I arm, it sees the switch to LTM and then just times out with MSP comm failure, it restarts the telemetry poller and then just sits there trying to get MSP_INAV_STATUS - which obviously it will never get because the aircraft is flying and sending LTM.

in the mean time for the rest of the flight until disarm, when it gets MSP again, it just keeps running the last alt/sats/voltage callouts it got.

Is there any way to revert back to the last state it was in for the telemetry poller? ie, if it's disarmed or in msp and times out it goes back to that. but if it already knows it's armed and is getting (eg LTM) telemetry, to go back and look for LTM?

This wasn't under WSL, this was under ubuntu 18.10

as https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showpost.php?p=38671422&postcount=224

This tool looks really great, but is there a possibility to run on mac OS X or migrate it to OS X ? Thanks!

not an "issue" par se, but an observation. Didn't want to edit the wiki directly but i can if you want me to. In the Install page, there's an easier way (single command) to install the ubuntu deps.

I would also recommend adding the "-y" switch to all the "apt install" lines that way the user doesn't get prompted for "are you sure?" :D

anyways, right now you have this:

copy the ubuntu-deps.txt file
cp docs/ubuntu-deps.txt /tmp/ubuntu-deps.sh
make it executable
chmod +x /tmp/ubuntu-deps.sh

and run the script (this will take some time). Answer Y on all questions.
sudo /tmp/ubuntu-deps.sh

You can replace it with this

cd mwptools
sudo bash docs/ubuntu-deps.txt

Is it possible to implement it?

When GPS has fixed 6 or more satellites, Complete telemetry is broken. All Data modules freeze and activity light stops blinking. Reproducible with iNav 1.7.3 on SPRacing F3 Deluxe, SPRacing F3 Acro and Naze32 rev6. Same with different baud rates. Also tested on 1 PC and also one VM with Ubuntu 17.10
It seems to work with iNav 1.8-RC1 but only was able to get 7 satellite in my flat.

Should be investigated if MWP or iNav Bug.

Hello, i have installed mwptools from AUR using yaourt and qproxy does not start when launch mwp. To have Bing Map running correctly i need manually run qproxy and then launch mwp.

@stronnag Hi, I met a word "leg speed" when I read the manual, but I just don't understand what does it mean. I did some search online but almost found nothing about it. So what is that speed?
The word is from "WayPoint/Action Attributes", P1 of waypoint.
Thanks~

Google Maps have the most superior maps available, so is there anyway to use it, with your app? Those open maps look a bit hard to pinpoint the exact waypoint coordinates...maybe if one searched before in "Google Earth" and copy-pasted the coordinates somewhere, but thats not as straight forward as doing it in a standalone app.

Data Source - Taranis 9XD with Crossfire transmitter. Bluetooth device on CRSF is set to MAVEmu. MWP ground station is connected to CRSF via bluetooth device (/dev/rfcomm0). MWP receives and interprets the mavlink data perfectly. "Forward-To" appears to connect to GhettoStation BT device (/dev/rfcomm1) OK, but it appears that no data is forwarded. BT device was checked outside of the data-loop for proper serial link via serial monitor using "echo and cat." BT link is 9600 baud. Multiple baud rates and settings were attempted via changes to the BT device (HC-05). Tried gsettings set org.mwptools.planner forward "minLTM." When run, logging similar to the following is output. Again, MWP receives and processes the info OK.

Now when trying to run mwp from the "Activities" list in Gnome, or from terminal, the following error shows in the system log..

Because I don't need long range telemetry on all vehicles (like planes) I prefer to use a ESP8266 Wireless Module to connect with my laptop or smartphone wirelessly.

On android with INAV Mission Planner it works out of the box and absolutely perfect. With my Windows Laptop I need an extra tool to connect a virtual COM-port over WiFi but this also works fine to use INAV Configurator.

Unfortunately I was not able yet to connect this virtual COM port stable to VMWare and use it on my Ubuntu VM with mwptools. I also have another laptop (an old netbook) only with ubunto and specially configured for mwptools only but I was not able to get the Serial Port connected over Wifi and use it with mwptools.

I found this manual for all different systems that told to use "socat" for this but I just don't understand this 2-line manual. My Linux skills are like.... a Windows User? :D

It would be great if you could make a manual for Linux dummies like me to get a connection over Wifi with an ESP8266.

As for the title.

When running cf-cli on a Windows 7 laptop with a serial port is after COM9: (for example, COM15:), the program fails with a message like "07:09:16 open COM15: - The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. (0x7b)". The CleanFlight configuration is able to successfully reach the flight controller using the same serial port. If the serial port is renamed to a "lower" port number (for example, COM7:), then cf-cli is able to run successfully.

Please make flight statistics window user configurable so that user can add their needed values like max altitude,Max gps distance from the armed position,max amps etc.Thanks.

... and so on.

I use usb to serial converter. In EOSBandi's WinGUI for MW works better, but i need change nav version 7 to 5 and firmware version to 2.30. And it does not upload missions.

I hope on mwptools.

Because I don't have a hand held radio controller and want to use the wireless module to do all the control, so I wonder how to arm the FC board and make it take off?

I am using a pair of xbees to do the wireless data exchange (MSP), and I am able to use xbee to get data from the FC board, upload missions, etc. In the past, I sent raw RC values to the board to replace the radio controller so that I could arm and take off.

But to make it fly with waypoints, I still need to arm it, right? Does the process look like: 1. upload waypoints/ missions with mwp; 2. use rc arm it; 3. then the quadcopter take off by itself?

Then how to do this if I don't have the rc? I tried to send raw rc values after I upload missions, but still not able to arm it.

If possible please add the feature so that log entries show clock and date(GPS time and date of creation by the flight controller) along with duration in a mwp BB log chooser window.Thanks.

Hello Jonathan,
Thank you for the interesting program mwp.
Unfortunately I could not compile mwp. I get the error:
mapsources.vala:278.21-278.33: error: The name listen_all' does not exist in the context ofSoupProxy'
I use Ubuntu 14.04.

Is it possible to help me please?

p.s.: It would be nice to mention in your README.md that the "*-dev" version of the support packages must be installed, e.g. libchamplain-0.12-dev.

"In Preferences/Device List, I deleted some default devices and added /dev/ttyUSB0 then Apply.
But it does not appear in the Main screen. Exit and re-run mwp makes no difference.
Did I do something wrong?"

Please tell me:

• OS
• How you installed e.g. make; sudo make install
• The exact value you tried to set (may cut & paste it)
• The output of (from a terminal)

gsettings list-recursively org.mwptools.planner

If you in a terminal enter:

gsettings set org.mwptools.planner device-names "['/dev/ttyUSB0']"

what then happens when you run mwp?

I can play them with INAV blackbox explorer but with mwp (latest build for "ancient" ubuntu) no.

It says no log in the files.

Can you gently take a look on what it is going on?

Hi!
I very much enjoy the tool you have written.
I try to integrate/make it usable with my own project called "DroneBridge" which is a communication link.
"End-user-device" (app/laptop/mwptools) to ground station communication currently is based on UDP.

If mwptools requests a message it waits for about one second for a requested message (according to Wireshark) bevor it requests a new one (timeout). As the radio link loses packets from time to time, this behaviour leads to one-second delays/interruptions. I think the user experience suffers a lot from that, for the fact that just one packet was lost.

As this is a UDP only issue (i guess) I'd like to make following suggestions:

• Make timeout configurable (at least for UDP connections)
• Make requests per second configurable - MSP is polled and that way users can optimize the settings for their hardware/link capacity.

Another thing that came up:
I love the fact that it auto-detects the switch from MSP to LTM. DroneBridge delivers both protocols via separate UDP streams. Would it be possible to have a second socket for LTM only? The moment LTM is detected on socket 2 you could pause/deactivate socket 1 for MSP.
I'll write a new issue if necessary. Just want to test the waters.

Previously I successfully installed mwp, but seems like the other tools were not installed at all.
I can start up mwp, but mspsim only gives me "mspsim: command not found".
Then I tried to make it in mspsim folder, but got some error:

The version number generation script fails during installation if the latest commit was signed with a GPG key (e.g.: git commit -S).

Strings with quotes inside them are probably imported unescaped and the rest of the code gets wrapped inside them until EOF, causing unparseable output.

Due to an ill-advised change to the UI, mwp no longer works well on small screens, due to the redesign of the top status bar. To be revised.

Via user Alle_Ita on RCG https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showpost.php?p=38633222&postcount=212

If a blackbox log file contains 'shell special' characters, it will be ignored for replay. The file name needs to be escaped before being passed to the replay script.

When the user tries to upload a mission that contains valid MW waypoint types that are not supported by iNav, on a connected iNav FC, mwp should warn the user of the downgrade action, thusly:

iNav misinterprets MSPv2 messages prior to iNav 1.8, resulting for example in MSP2_COMMON_SETTING returning data for MSP_FC_VERSION. Typically this would result in the nav_wp_safe_distance always returned as 18m.

I'd propose also a artificial horizon indicator as an enhancement to your gui. Like the "major" autopilot gui's have, like taulabs gcs, apm-planner etc.

Just an idea!
Have fun & great work so far!

This is currently being worked. As of 2016-03-04

make
sudo make sysinstall 

will install in system locations (/usr) and requires no environment variables and

make
make install 

will install locally, requiring XDG_DATA_DIRS and ~/bin on the PATH.

This will be further simplified (and documented) and the issue closed once the process is complete.
