I am having a problem trying to get Mission Planner through the initial setup Wizard.
I have a hexa frame and have Navio2 running sudo ArduCopter-hexa -A udp:192.168.0.15:14550 -C /dev/ttyAMA0 > /home/pi/start$ in the /etc/rc.local. I can, when I go into Mission Planner connect either with UDP or via my serial telemetry, so I know that this part is working.
But, when I try to run the Wizard, I open Mission Planner, then go directly into Initial Setup without connecting. I am asked for my frame type and I pick multi rotor then select the hexacopter image. Mission planner then wants me to select a com port, and if I pick the port with my serial telemetry I get a time out. The UDP port does not appear. Also I can not click next so I am at a loss what to do.
If I try again, but this time connect to the UDP or Serial port before I start the Wizard, Mission Planner bypasses the frame selection and defaults to a Quad, not Hex so that is a problem.
I read some place in the documentation that the firmware load is not needed with the Navio2 but I can not find that again but I also found another post about downloading the arducopter firmware so I downloaded the one for the hexacopter (called ArduCopter.elf). The post says to copy to Pi and make executable but I am not sure how to do either of those things.
Sorry but I am definitely having a mental block on what to do. Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
