1.0.0 Firmware ModalIO - 4-in-1 mini ESC control and measurement
-
Hello,
We have been testing the 4-in-1 mini ESC using our VOXL2. Running from testing scripts in python we are able to set the RPM to our desired quantity and measure the board current.
However, we are having trouble when using PX4. When I go into actuator test mode and request a power of 1.0 (so max in the px4 world) on the test stand, the ESC status topic returns that the ESC power is 50 which is too low to lift the drone. Modifying the ESC parameters to lift the max RPM has no effect on this behavior.
We would also like the monitor the ESC current, but the ESC status topic does not seem to have any fields for the board current and the mini does not return individual ESC current measurements. Will this be added in the full 1.0.0 release?
Thank you!
