[beagleboard] Replace PixHawk with BB Blue

2018-09-12 Thread Marius Liebenberg
Hi

I am relatively new to the RC world so please forgive stupid questions. I 
am replacing the PixHawk APM on a plane I bought with a BB Blue loaded with 
Ardupilot.

I would like to keep whatever hardware already installed if possible. All 
the GPS and telemetry stuff seems to be OK but I cannot see a way to 
connect the 3DR Power Module to the Bone. Has anyone done this kind of 
conversion and how would I do the PM integration if possible?

2016-01-10 Thread Marius Liebenberg
Hi Valentin
Same last confusion. I have tried all kinds of setup in qtcreator but no
success. It is always that the compiler and the qt version does not match.

Would you be willing to have a look via teamviewer at my setup please? If
so, you can pm me for login details.

Ok it must have failed or  I have a qt5 under
/opt/poky/2.0.
If I try to load the qmake or qtversion of that directory qtcreator says
"exec format error"

[beagleboard] QT setup for host and target tutorial that actually works

2016-01-07 Thread Marius Liebenberg
Hi
I have tried every possible tutorial that I could find on the net to setup 
and compile QT5 for Target and host. I am using the BeagleBone Black and I 
can generate an image in several ways. At the moment I have an Ubuntu 14.04 
with a 4.1.x kernel installed. I also have the QT stuff compiled and 
installed on the image. I also have a Debian image with the same. This I 
done with the Yocto project.
So the problem is not to build an image but rather the tool chains and the 
QT environment on the PC side

I accept that it is always of my own fault that things dont compile and 
work out, so I dont blame anyone for the failures. I have spent more than a 
month trying all kinds of recipes and tutorials but none seem to explain in 
layman's terms what is required. They explain the steps but I dont have a 
clear understanding of what is needed to do for the target and what for the 
host and then how to apply these in the Qt creator environment. There is 
always a failure of sorts and then you are left in the dark with no one to 
ask.

My host PC is running Debian 8 (Jessie). 

Can anyone recommend a link to a tutorial will help me setup QT5 with Qt 
creator and the PC and how to get the debug on the target going.
Not the QT documentation please, it is not written to help anyone.

Any help will be appreciated.
