Warning: This is a beta release! Despite extensive tests use with caution!
This image is based on the WifiBroadcast 1.6RC6 release
To set it up check out the Wiki

Tested on Raspberry Pi 3 with TL-WN722N wifi modules. MSP connected over USB and LTM over UART.

Changelog:

Much of the code and protocols has been rewritten. DroneBridge now features a custom C-lib that handles all the protocol and transmission stuff. That way all modules are based on the same source, except python implementations. All fancy new features of WifiBroadcast 1.6RC6 like OSD and kernel modules are available. DroneBridge comes with updated packages.

  • Full support for MAVLink telemetry (DroneBridge on Raspberry Pi & app)
  • MAVLink upload (bidirectional link). Untested as I do not have a MAVLink FC :(
  • MSP upload/download fully supported and tested (might be slow due to packetloss or some bug)
  • MWP Tools sucessfuly tested with DroneBridge. Upload iNAV missions!
  • All new DroneBridge RC protocol (12 channels & 50% smaller packets, more secure)
  • All new DroneBridge raw protocol v2: way smaller packets while keeping all the functionality
  • Android app can display RC channels (via MAVLink telemetry or DroneBridge RC)
  • Based on WBC 1.6 RC6
  • Ability to set/request individual settings - smaller packets, future proof
  • Telemetry module baud rate can be changed
  • Display WBC video stats in app
  • SUMD RC output (Untested)
  • Lots of code cleanup and new modules (C only)
  • Custom splash screen at boot
