Timeline for merging full-speed navdata and extra navdata packets into master? about ardrone_autonomy HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi Mike,

I am back on track with Drones. I will start updating the documentation today. I will do the merge when documentation is updated.

BTW, I want to freeze development for ROS Fuerte after this merge. The plan is to create a branch called fuerte from the upcoming master which will be indexed in ROS wiki for Fuerte release, I will then use master branch for Groovy development. I think when next ROS version arrives the similar method can be used to freeze development for Groovy. What do you think?

I updated the dev-unstable with information about new Navdata, disable auto-hover and Flight animations. I was wondering if you can help me with documentation of the "loop update" section?

The documentation and minor code updates on dev-unstable has been finished. I tested the branch both on Groovy and Fuerte. I think it is safe now to merge it into the master. Would you please give it a try with your own controllers? @mikehamer @JakobEngel @parcon @sameerparekh

I ran a quick test today (I was hoping to run a more extensive test yesterday but something was wrong with my linux configuration and I didn't fix it) and it all works, without using any new features. I also tested the realtime navdata feature, and the video is much less laggy, which I am hoping will lead to more precise control, but I didn't test that really.. I just made sure it flies and tracks.

So +1 on my end.

Thanks.

I was able to test successfully with dev-unstable. I've been using it for weeks with no problems.
