ArduPlane Airsim & ArduPilot communication #15095

Using Mavlink SITL with Airsim

I am working on adding a fixedwing aircraft simulation to AirSim, described in detail in the following AirSim issue with a forked repository under branch fixed wing.

Feature Description I am aiming to add a couple of functions to the AirSim SITL files that allow a plane in AirSim to communicate with Ardupilot/ArduPlane via Mavlink. In particular the AirSim autopilot aspects will prove useful to validate the aircraft prior to flight test and can be used as an intermediary in training.

Describe alternatives you've considered Writing my own autopilot function as done in simple_flight. This is clearly a much more complicated solution. Using the PX4 SITL --> this is very similar to Ardupilot implementation described above

Hey, I was wondering whether you was able to finish integration of communication between AirSim and Ardupilot ArduPlane. I was trying to establish communication, but it seams very unstable. Is there any reasons and maybe you can tell me more about the state of integration so maybe I can continue your journey. Thank you in advance.
