Telemetry forwarding

To forward telemetry stream using MAVProxy:

mavproxy.py --master=X --out=Y where X is source (your vehicle) and Y is the destination.

  1. Connection addresses could be one of the followings:
    1. /dev/ttyUSBX for Linux and COMX for Windows serial connections.
    2. tcp:IP:PORT for local TCP connections.
    3. udp:IP:PORT or just IP:PORT for local UDP connections.
    4. tcpout:IP:PORT for remote TCP connections.
    5. udpout:IP:PORT for remote UDP connections.
  2. If connection is a serial connection, baud rate can be specified as:
    1. --baudrate=X or
    2. --master=Y,X, --out=Y,X where X is the baud rate.
  3. Always use UDP connection for your telemetry streams for continuity, low latency and ease of use.
  4. Deal with the redundancy and guaranteed message delivery on your application.
  5. More than one master source (of the same vehicle) and/or output stream can be defined.
