Ignis Operations Manual
Drone Amplified
Pressing the "Configure Custom Connection" button at the top will allow you to define
your own MAVLink connection in case one of the listed options doesn't work for your setup.
You can only have one custom connection defined at a time. There are the following options:
Connection Type:
Select "None" to remove the custom connection option from the list.
Select "TCP" or "UDP". USB: Custom USB connection
IPv4 address:
Appears when UDP or TCP is selected as the connection type. Allows you to
type in the IP address of the radio in ###.###.###.### format. The text above the input
box will display what the app has parsed from your input.
Port:
Appears when UDP or TCP is selected as the connection type. Allows you to type in
the UDP or TCP port of the radio. The text above the input box will display what the app
has parsed from your input.
USB Device:
Appears when USB is selected as the connection type. Displays a list of the
currently connected USB devices. Select the one you want.
Control FTDI Serial settings:
Appears when USB is selected as the connection type. Check
this box if the USB device is an FTDI brand USB to Serial converter. Unfortunately, due
to the poor design of the Android OS's USB interface, nearly all of the MAVLink packets
you receive will be corrupted when you use an FTDI brand USB to Serial converter. We
might be able to implement a workaround for this in the future to de-corrupt the
MAVLink packets.
Baud rate:
Appears when Control FTDI Serial settings are selected. Allows you to change
the baud rate that the USB to Serial converter operates at. Currently, only 57600, 115200,
and 12MHz are supported. Other serial parameters are hardcoded to 8 data bits, no
parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
