Communicating the Flight Controller with the Companion Computer

The communication between the companion computer and Pixhawk is done through the TELEM 2 port and an UART -> USB adapter. The PX4 website has good documentation on how to set this up.

We also have complimentary material on this process here.

Note that this step is very important:

usermod -a -G tty ros-user
usermod -a -G dialout ros-user

and reboot
