Quick Start¶

Single Script Setup -- Sim¶

For workspace: desktop, laptop, etc. This is a support script to install, build, and launch everything at once.

mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/robotics-88/open-drone-core.git
cd open-drone-core
./scripts/quickstart.sh

This brings up Gazebo, ArduCopter, ROS2 nodes, and the frontend, even if you start from a fresh Ubuntu install without ROS2. Should look like this when launching is complete:

Quickstart Complete

Test Setpoint Mission¶

Send your first setpoint mission from the frontend at http://127.0.0.1:8040/ by setting the IP in the Mission Panel to localhost and dropping a pin on the map. Watch the drone take off in Rviz or Gazebo.

Single Script Setup -- Drone¶

For the drone's onboard Jetson. This will clone and install everything assuming a brand new Jetson, including installing ROS2, with the assumption we are running Ubuntu 22.

cd
mkdir src
cd src
git clone https://github.com/robotics-88/open-drone-core.git
cd open-drone-core
./scripts/setup-drone.sh
source ~/.bashrc
