Autopilot Integration

Cyclops currently only supports ArduPilot.

The Cyclops system communicates with ArduPilot over MAVLink. Several operations are performed:

• Synchronize time: The Cyclops system contains a real-time clock and synchronizes the time on your flight controller.

• Pull sensor readings: compass, barometer, and position data are read over MAVLink and used by Cyclops.

This section goes over each parameter that needs to be configured in ArduPilot and how to do so from Mission Planner or QGroundControl.
