• With the complicated competition flight system, we need high-level software to aid us in the coordination of different sub-systems. The flight system EFS came out last year has a fantastic and delicate architecture, but it also takes way longer time than we expected to accomplish. We want to have a high-level system with simpler logic that can fly a drone with the aid of Pixhawk as the backup plan for competition.

• This is the rough idea of how it is gonna work

• please point out the flaw in this type of design and the missing part of the system

🗓️ Timeline

• The first stage of the development of simple SM would be building the UART and PPM protocol bridge such that the drone will be flyable by manual control. The anticipated first flight test will happen by the end of May.

• Then it can move on to the second stage, which is testing and fixing TM and Mavlink so that the drone can fly autonomously. The flight test for the autonomous flight will be in mid-June.

• The actual time span can be longer since there will be a lot of components involved and they all need testing and debugging. The good part is that Hardy Yu has enough time to invest in this development since he is the coop.
