I have set up Odroid-U3 board with a WiFi module running ROS I would like to maintain wireless contact with the drone from my computer

What command will enable me to do so?

Creating this contact is completely unrelated from ROS.

The drone hosts its own WiFi-Network, which you have to connect to. Once this is done, you should read the documentation from here. Also, have a look into this tutorial. It might not be completly compatible with the current AR-Drone-Driver, but when you use the virtual machine everythink should work. Nonetheless, it is a great introduction to accessing and programming the drone with ROS.

Good Luck!

Hi Rabe

I am using the Parrot Drone with Pixhawk controller (PX4FMU + PX4IAOR) and that's the reason for using WiFi module with the drone

I believe $ssh command would do

Oh, my bad, I was assuming you were going to use the ROS-Package. AFAIK there should be a Telnet port open on the drone, I think it was port number 21.

The drone doesn't use any of Parrot central unit, but only its frame, motors and ESC

I need to view the 3D map from the Structure Sensor connected with the ODROID-U3 board How do I achieve it
