In-Flight Analysis for PX4

This JavaFx based tool enables PX4 Users to record and analyse data published via UDP during flight. It is not intended to replace the QGC.

Status: Last updated 16/03/2016

New feature: Import/Export of recorded data

Features:

• Realtime data acquisition (50ms sampling)
• Trigger recording manually or by selectable flight-mode/state changes
• Choosable stop-recording delay
• Display of key-figures during and after recording (with horizontal scrolling)
• Display of basic vehicle information, like mode, battery status, messages and sensor availability
• XY Analysis for selected key-figures
• MAVLink inspector
• OpenStreepMap viewer of global position and raw gps data with option to record path (requires internet access)

In preparation:

• 3D Analysis of selected key figures

How to build on OSX (other platforms may need adjustments in build.xml):

• Clone repository
• Goto main directory cd MAVGCL-MAVGAnalysis/MAVGCL
• Run ant all

How to start (all platforms):

• Goto directory /dist

  (PX4 standard ports used, replace IP with yours)

  or java -jar MAVGAnalysis.jar --peerAddress=127.0.0.1 for SITL (jMAVSim)

  or just java -jar MAVGAnalysis.jarfor a basic demo.

• Import demo_data.mgc or collect data from your vehicle

How to deploy on OSX:

• Modify build.xml to adjust peer property.

• Run ant_deploy
