Tip If you have any problem connecting, see QGC Installation/Configuration Problems. You should now see HUD movement on your QGC computer via wireless link and be able to view the summary panel for the ESP8266 WiFi Bridge (as shown below). Once your computer/tablet is connected to the PixRacer WiFi Access Point, it will automatically make the connection. QGC automatically starts its UDP link on boot. On Windows, the connection settings will look like this: On your wifi-enabled QGroundControl ground station computer/tablet, find and connect to the open wireless network for your ESP8266.īy default the ESP8266 network is named PixRacer and the default password is pixracer. So it probably is possible to make a change somewhere in a ArduinoESP8266 corefile that defines the pins so that the Serial port is mapped to GPIO 4&5 and that GPIO 1&3 can be used as general GPIO especially I want I2C on these pins.
Once the firmware (port) is set up you can remove the physical USB connection between the ground station and the vehicle. I understand that ESP8266 pins can be (re)configured for any function. Remember to set the baud rate to 921600 in order to match the value set for the ESP8266. Configure the serial port used to connect the ESP8266.Pixracer) on any free UART.Ĭonnect the flight controller to your ground station via USB (as WiFi is not yet fully set up). The following instructions assume you are using PX4 versions after 1.8.2Ĭonnect your ESP8266 to your Pixhawk-series flight controller (e.g.
Tip If using PX4 1.8.2 (and earlier) you should connect the ESP8266 to TELEM2 and configure the port by setting the parameter SYS_COMPANION to 1921600 (remember to reboot after setting the parameter).
