Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Configuration of a distance based autoshoot function with Yapa2

[Jorn Anke]

Hi,

By now, I have a working solution for a time-based camera trigger for my autopilot (Yapa). Now, I am trying to find a similar configuration for a distance-based trigger. I have been searching the wiki and tested all the solutions that I have found, (and then some), but with little luck. Most frequently, (simulation mode), the trigger is fired very rapidly, (maybe 3 times p. second). So, I think I have not yet found the correct settings for the airframe-file or maybe for the flight-plane file.

Anyone who can see what I might have done wrong?


Cheers,

Jorn
