Current UAV Pose Topic #28

Closed EceChaik closed 2 years ago

EceChaik commented 2 years ago

Hi,

I have a question regarding the topic at which the UAV's current pose should be available. Currently it is mentioned in the instructions that this should be mavros/global_position/local, however I think this topic might no be updated with position estimates at this point. The UAV's pose is accurately tracked by the /red/odometry topic (presumably this is direct gazebo data) so I'm wondering if we can subscribe to that one instead.

Hi @EceChaik,

I guess we forgot to update the README after we switched from mavros to direct gazebo data on /red/odometry topic, so the answer is: yes, you can and should subsrcibe to /red/odometry topic (that is the topic that the controller uses).

We will update the README. Thanks for reporting!
