Hi,
I am using this:

  • Ubuntu 14.04
  • ROS Indigo
  • Bebop_autonomy
  • Disco FPV

My goal is to create a package to fly the drone and receive the images as I am doing with the Bebop 2.
But, at this moment, I had not successfully taken off using the command /bebop/takeoff as I had done with the Bebop 2 before. When I send the message I look at the communication with the command rqt_graph and everything seems normal, but the drone does not start the motor. Is there another command to, or another way, to take off the Disco?

Thank you very much.
Eder Alejandro Rodriguez Martinez

Thanks for the bug report @eder1234 . Unfortunately I do not have access to a Disco at the moment. Could you please share more information about the current state of support with Disco? Does the driver run successfully? Can you receive images or read any data from the drone using the driver? Could you please paste the complete console output here?

Thanks for the detailed console log.

Unfortunately I can not see any hints about the root cause of the issue in the log. Based on Parrot's documentation, the takeoff command should work both on Bebop and Disco. Can you fly the Disco with Parrot's app without any issue?

which, I guess, is the projection matrix. Is it a 4 x 3 or a 3 x 4 matrix (I had found both in literature)?

It's a 3x4 matrix.

Hello @eder1234,
Have you made any progress with this work? I have access to a Disco to work on providing support for it in this ROS package. I will try this weekend to takeoff and fly the Disco with ROS and will provide any launch files or tips in the documentation, so if you have any pointers it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

Support added in #168. New topic is used (user_takeoff) that initiates the takeoff of the Disco.
