I am trying to fly the ardrone parrot 2.0 using tum_ardrone ptam module. I ahd to make it first

       rosmake tum_ardrone

The above compiled with 0 failures. however, when I do the following commad

       rosrun tum_ardrone drone_stateestimation

I get the following error

      [rosrun] Couldn't find executable named drone_stateestimation below

      /home/bojan/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone

I tried to google and get a solid pipelined solution to check for the reason for this error and solve it, but I did not get it. Am new to ubuntu, thus your help is much appreicated. This error doesn't seem to be package specific since the same package works fine in another laptop I tested. Am runnign Ubuntu in vmWare. Does that make any difference? Or is it something am missing with the package.?

Thanks in advance

Which version of ROS are you using? We are currently upgrading the tum_ardrone package to use catkin, so that we will ease compiling and using in groovy and hydro. Stay connected, it should be done within a few days

Hello, I use ROS Hydro and I have installed tum_ardrone with catkin and I don't get error. But when I try to run ''rosrun tum_ardrone drone_stateestimation'' , I have the same problem.

[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named drone_stateestimation below /opt/ros/hydro/catkin_ws/src/tum_ardrone

Hello again, I resolved my problem. I installed tum_vision with catkin. Then I added:

cd ~/catkin_ws/

export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH:`pwd`/src/ardrone_autonomy

export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH:`pwd`/src/tum_ardrone

source devel /setup.bash
