Initial Beta Release (v1.0.0-beta)
This is the initial beta release of the PX4 X-Plane Plugin. This release provides a minimal demonstration of the plugin and is still under progress, so it might have bugs and problems.
Features
- Establishes a TCP connection between X-Plane and PX4 SITL.
- Integrates MAVLink messages for communication between the simulator and PX4.
Known Issues
- Attitude estimation might have problems with abnormal attitudes and high-speed rapid rotation.
- Performance: It's crucial to run X-Plane at a high FPS since the PX4 EKF requires fast updating of sensor data.
- Yaw PID Tuning: The Quadricopter drone's yaw gain can be challenging to tune.
Installation
Please follow the installation instructions provided in the README.
Compatibility
The attached binary is for Windows 64bit and is compatible with X-Plane 11.50 and above, including X-Plane 12. If you are a Linux or Mac user, you can build the plugin yourself by following the instructions in the README. I may provide precompiled binaries for these platforms in future releases.
Feedback
As this is a beta release, your feedback is very important to us. Please report any issues you encounter or suggestions you have.
