Ground Control Station

🔙Back to Home

---

This directory contains the custom python ground control station(GCS) application which will be communicating between the Alexa skill and drone

• Install all packages from requirements.txt in the local environment of GCS
• Python version 3.6 is recommended as it is tested on the same
• Run main.py with an optional connection string argument like --connect /dev/ttyUSB0 for specifying the telemetry radio receiver's port connected to GCS
• If no connection string is provided, it will default to dronekit-sitl or another simulator setup
• Custom connection strings(for both real drone's telemetry receiver or alternate simulator) can be set as default in droneActions.py file
