STorM32 Passthrough for ArduPilot
this new feature allows to connect the STorM32 GUI to the USB port of an ArduPilot flight controller, or in fact to any of it's serial ports, and directly communicate with an attached STorM32 gimbal controller.
This should be extremely convenient for configuring STorM32 gimbals even when already installed permanently in a flight vehicle.
It also works via a wireless telemetry link, and thus opens the option to tune the gimbal during flight, and further unheard of possibilities for controlling the gimbal during flight.
CORRECTION:
In the video I'm saying that the passthrough is not working for me, possibly because my telemetry link is too weak. That's wrong, I just made a mistake so stupid that I'm not going to tell. It works perfectly, also in flight, see this video: • STorM32 Passthrough for ArduPilot: In...
