Commands with dronekit codes

[ummuhan3sahin (Ummuhan Sahin)]

Hello
I want to control my navio2 with dronekit commands I tried to run this line in my navio2. python ./vehicle_state.py --connect udp:127.0.0.1:14550 While my navio and GCS connected to same wifi I put this command to navio and I had some errors like this:

Connecting to vehicle on: udp:127.0.0.1:14550

File “/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dronekit/init.py”, line 2275, in initialize
raise APIException(‘Timeout in initializing connection.’)
dronekit.APIException: Timeout in initializing connection.

How could I connect them and send commands from ssh to my navio?

Hi Ummuhan,

Please double-check the default ArduCopter is disabled on boot by running sudo emlidtool ardupilot . In the boot section, you need to select disable .

If it doesn’t help, you can try increasing the timeout parameter to 120 seconds or even more in the _ _ init _ _.py file from Dronekit. Sometimes, loading parameters may take up to 2 minutes, which causes this timeout issue.
