UAV Edition
Hookup:
SoftRF is using a wired connection to autopilot in order to pick current position and time stamp. MAVLINK 1.0 datalink protocol is involved.
It does also supply received air traffic data to an ADS-B capable AP,
such as Pixhawk.
Please, make sure your autopilot is configured in Mission Planner as explained in this page:
http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-ads-b-receiver.html#setup-through-the-ground-station
You should also switch your SoftRF firmware operation into UAV mode:
In order to prevent radio interference with other onboard equipment, SoftRF's built-in Wi-Fi transmitter (2.4 Ghz) gets muted all over the time while UAV's AP is in armed state .
This picture is an illustration for RX capability of the SoftRF-UAV:
(AP's firmware is ArduCopter 3.4.6 , Mission Planner's version is 1.3.48)
