User mavproxy params need to be overwritten #331

Closed jaxxzer closed 2 years ago

jaxxzer commented 4 years ago

Our default parameters have evolved in such a way that it is now a requirement to update them. Rather than depend on the user to do this step manually during update installation, we should do it as part of the update process.

The 'symptom' or problem that arises is that QGC will only request the autopilot to send telemetry on the initial connection. After connecting to QGC if the ROV or autopilot is unplugged/replugged, QGC will not reconnect/show telemetry until QGC is restarted.

A temporary workaround for the user is to reset the mavproxy parameters to default and power cycle the rov. image
