AC3.5: Pixracer params can't be updated over wifi #5799
Comments
First reported by artemen on this thread: http://discuss.ardupilot.org/t/copter-3-5-rc1-released-for-beta-testing |
@WickedShell, ok thanks. If it's the same issue then the bit of new info I have is that the performance is worse between AC3.4.5 and AC3.5-rc1. |
I believe @DonLakeFlyer was saying it fell apart around the time of the frame change? I could be really off on that recollection however. |
As I've written in discuss, the wifi port is just like another serial port from an ArduPilot perspective. If this is an issue, is it happening with other devices? Here is a link for a long discussion where @peterbarker was testing new firmware for the Wifi board and got much better results.
I don't know why it has gone worse with 3.5/master but it's possible we are sending more messages and the Wifi board just can't keep up. |
This should be fairly easy to test:
Don't forget to change the baudrates accordingly. If only the Wifi board doesn't work, it is almost certain that the issue isn't with ArduPilot. |
A bit more information:

@rmackay9 I've been tracking this with Don here mavlink/qgroundcontrol#4643 still have to check via wifi, which will do after work |
If you could try Note you'll want a git submodule update between as it is a submodule commit in question. |
This problem appears to be resolved. |
If using a Pixracer with the little wifi board, changes to parameters (i.e. ARMING_CHECK) always fail. This was tested on master (pre AC3.5-rc2) using windows PC and mission planner.
