@Eric-Katzfey Also, there is a parameter called VOXL_ESC_T_ON. How is that set? It determines which button will be used for turtle mode. The code is here: https://github.com/modalai/px4-firmware/blob/ea098200d3c09b7af548bf7be29fda245fad8f17/src/modules/mavlink/mavlink_receiver.cpp#L2083

@Eric-Katzfey I am not able to see the option you have mentioned VOXL_ESC_T_ON

In the Mavlink console what do you see with "param show VOXL_ESC_*"?

And what about "ver all"?

What is the parameter COM_RC_IN_MODE set to?

Jetson Nano

@Eric-Katzfey COM_RC_IN_MODE is set to joystick only

Jetson Nano

@Eric-Katzfey Hey hope you are doing fine, I checked the code and various branches of PX4, I noticed I was able to see the parameter VOXL_ESC_T_ON but the option only showcased button 1 for assignment . what to do if I want to assign another button.

Eric Katzfey

@Jetson-Nano You set that parameter to match the button you want to use.

Jetson Nano

@Eric-Katzfey Thank you for reverting back, The options only show one option button 1. I tested with button one but the drone was not taking in the command for enabling the turtle mode.
I want to know whether the code was tested out, so that I can be sure about not missing out on any parameter or setup

Eric Katzfey

@Jetson-Nano It's a parameter that you can set to any number you want. In QGC you can look at the joysticks tab and see as you press each button which number it is. Then set the parameter to that number.
