FlightPlanEvent.StartingErrorEvent()

[moercy]

Because I can’t start a Flightplan i wanted to test with the Mavlink working Example, but when i start Sphinx and a ANAFI AI drone i get common.FlightPlanEvent.StartingErrorEvent() and the drone doesn’t move.

What could be the problem?

Hi @moercy,

To run a flightplan with Olympe, you need to create a MAVlink text file with all the command to be executed. The file format and all the commands are explained here . Here’s an example with a POI (on simulator) :

QGC	WPL	120
0	0	2	50000	1	0	0	nan	nan	nan	nan	1
1	0	3	16	0	5	0	nan	48.87967529526926	2.3684653550986985	8.000000000	1
2	0	3	195	nan	nan	nan	nan	48.879018292826736	2.369363208743386	5.000000000	1
3	0	3	16	0	0	0	nan	48.87833187800817	2.368506353983279	9.000000000	1
4	0	3	16	0	0	0	nan	48.878221977594784	2.367090121597097	10.000000000	1
5	0	2	197	0	0	0	nan	48.8784397402	2.3684787334	10.000000000	1
6	0	3	16	0	0	0	nan	48.87884988257511	2.366479960574512	10.000000000	1

Once the file is created, upload it to the drone’s webserver .

You can start this flightplan with the olympe command olympe.messages.flight_plan.start_at_v2. You can catch the olympe event olympe.messages.flight_plan.info to know the problem if the flightplan doesn’t start.
