Hello,
Voxl-vision-hub is the most important tool (to my knowledge) to develop autonomous flight applications in the VOXL2 platform.
One can develop a new application based on the existing templates as "offboard_mycode.c" , change the config parameter "offboard_mode" to "mycode" and the code will execute when the drone enters offboard mode - which requires having the drone armed and flying !
It would be of great value for development, test and debug purposes to be able to run offboard_mycode when the drone is NOT armed. This is not exactly HITL using Gazebo, the idea is to run the program while printing debug values to the monitor to see if intermediate variables have the correct value and the code is running correctly.
Is there a way to run and test offboard code in VOXL2 while the drone is not armed , by sending debug text to the terminal ? Please let me know. Thanks.
