--------------### Example 1: Basic Flight Control using ArduinoThis example demonstrates a basic flight control system using an Arduino-based flight controller. We'll use the Arduino IDE to program the flight controller to respond to radio transmitter inputs.```c++
#include <Arduino.h>
#include <Servo.h>// Define pin connections
const int rollPin = 2;
const int pitchPin = 3;
const int yawPin = 4;
const int throttlePin = 5;// Create servo objects for motors
Servo motor1, motor2, motor3, motor4;void setup() {
// Initialize serial communication
Serial.begin(9600);// Initialize motor objects
motor1.attach(rollPin);
motor2.attach(pitchPin);
motor3.attach(yawPin);
motor4.attach(throttlePin);
}void loop() {
// Read radio transmitter inputs
int roll = pulseIn(rollPin, HIGH);
int pitch = pulseIn(pitchPin, HIGH);
int yaw = pulseIn(yawPin, HIGH);
int throttle = pulseIn(throttlePin, HIGH);// Map inputs to motor speeds
int motor1Speed = map(roll, 1000, 2000, 0, 180);
int motor2Speed = map(pitch, 1000, 2000, 0, 180);
int motor3Speed = map(yaw, 1000, 2000, 0, 180);
int motor4Speed = map(throttle, 1000, 2000, 0, 180);// Write motor speeds to servos
motor1.write(motor1Speed);
motor2.write(motor2Speed);
motor3.write(motor3Speed);
motor4.write(motor4Speed);// Print debug information
Serial.print("Roll: ");
Serial.print(roll);
Serial.print(" Pitch: ");
Serial.print(pitch);
Serial.print(" Yaw: ");
Serial.print(yaw);
Serial.print(" Throttle: ");
Serial.println(throttle);
}
```### Example 2: Autonomous Flight using PX4This example demonstrates an autonomous flight system using a PX4-compatible flight controller. We'll use the PX4 SITL (Software-In-The-Loop) simulator to test our code.```c++
#include <px4_config.h>
#include <px4_time.h>
#include <uORB/topics/vehicle_attitude.h>// Define autonomous flight mode
enum class FlightMode {
MANUAL,
AUTO
};FlightMode flightMode = FlightMode::AUTO;// Define autonomous flight waypoints
struct Waypoint {
float latitude;
float longitude;
float altitude;
};Waypoint waypoints[] = {
{47.398333, 8.545833, 10.0}, // Waypoint 1
{47.399167, 8.546389, 15.0}, // Waypoint 2
{47.400000, 8.547500, 10.0} // Waypoint 3
};void setup() {
// Initialize PX4 system
px4_init();// Set autonomous flight mode
flightMode = FlightMode::AUTO;
}void loop() {
// Check if in autonomous flight mode
if (flightMode == FlightMode::AUTO) {
// Get current vehicle attitude
vehicle_attitude_s attitude;
orb_copy(ORB_ID(vehicle_attitude), &attitude);// Calculate distance to next waypoint
float distance = calculateDistance(attitude.latitude, attitude.longitude, waypoints[0].latitude, waypoints[0].longitude);// If close to waypoint, move to next one
if (distance < 1.0) {
waypoints++;
}// Set target attitude for next waypoint
setTargetAttitude(waypoints[0].latitude, waypoints[0].longitude, waypoints[0].altitude);
}
}
