DroneBridge / DroneBridge

DroneBridge is a system based on the WifiBroadcast approach. A bidirectional digital radio link between two endpoints is established using standard WiFi hardware and a custom protocol. DroneBridge is optimized for use in UAV applications and is a complete system. It is intended be a real alternative to other similar systems, such as DJI Lightbridge or OcuSync.

Discontinue iNav support

seeul8er opened this issue · comments

Supporting iNav & MAVLink is very time consuming for a single developer and makes the system more complicated since iNav "needs" two serial ports (MSP & LTM)

Looks like Ardupilot now supports cheaper hardware, so the big advantage of iNav over price seems to be gone now. Does it make any sense to keep supporting iNav? Ardupilot looks like the go-to option for me:

  • Better library support, SITL Simulator
  • Better documentation
  • More features
  • Bigger community

But the Ardupilot GUI is a mess. The INAV GUI is a lot cleaner these days

I think iNav is pretty irrelevant these days. Maybe make it like a module and try to carry it on to newer versions and don't implement features for it which would require changes to the core iNav communication. Or maybe someone in the community could do it?
