Developer Tools for Fixed-wing
Project description
Getting Started
Planekit helps you create powerful apps for fixed-wing UAVs. These apps run on a UAV’s Companion Computer, and augment the autopilot by performing tasks that are both computationally intensive and require a low-latency link.
This documentation provides everything you need to get started with Planekit, including an overview of the API, quick start, guide material, a number of demos and examples, and API Reference.
Install Planekit
pip install planekit
Start simulation anywhere or connect UAV:
Plankit does not include any built-in simulation. Therefore, you must connect the planekit still or an arduplane installed UAV.
A simple example of starting a still with Mission planar
Planekit supports other alternatives. (Mavproxy etc.)
First connection
You can see the first connection example below.
import time
import planekit
vehicle = planekit.Connection("tcp:127.0.0.1:5762")
vehicle.wait_heartbeat()
print("connection is successful")
