本文介绍了在Ubuntu系统下使用SITL模拟器的相关内容。SITL模拟器可在无硬件情况下运行Plane、Copter或Rover。详细说明了安装步骤，包括克隆代码、安装必要包、安装Dronekit等，还阐述了运行步骤，如启动模拟器、配置连接、启动MAVProxy和运行脚本等。

Overview

The SITL simulator allows you to run Plane, Copter or Rover without any hardware. It is a build of the autopilot code using an ordinary C++ compiler, giving you a native executable that allows you to test the behaviour of the code without hardware.

SITL模拟器允许您在没有任何硬件的情况下运行Plane，Copter或Rover。它是使用普通C ++编译器构建的自动导航代码，为您提供本机可执行文件，允许您在没有硬件的情况下测试代码的行为。

Install steps

Cloning with the command line

git clone https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot
cd ardupilot
git submodule update --init --recursive

Install some required packages

cd ardupilot

sudo apt-get install python-matplotlib python-serial python-wxgtk3.0 python-lxml

sudo apt-get install python-scipy python-opencv ccache gawk git python-pip python-pexpect

Tools/scripts/install-prereqs-ubuntu.sh -y

. ~/ .profile

Install Dronekit

pip install dronekit

Update pymavlink and MAVProxy

we can not see the vehicle on the map without updating

sudo pip install --upgrade pymavlink MAVProxy

Add some directories to your search path (Facultative)

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/ardupilot/Tools/autotest

export PATH=/usr/lib/ccache:$PATH

. ~/.bashrc

Run steps

Start SITL simulator

cd ardupilot/ArduCopter

Then start the simulator using sim_vehicle.py. The first time you run it you should use the -w option to wipe the virtual EEPROM and load the right default parameters for your vehicle.

然后使用sim_vehicle.py启动模拟器。第一次运行它时，应使用-w选项擦除虚拟EEPROM并为您的车辆加载正确的默认参数。

sim_vehicle.py -w

After the default parameters are loaded you can start the simulator normally. First kill the sim_vehicle.py you are running using Ctrl-C. Then:

加载默认参数后，您可以正常启动模拟器。首先使用Ctrl-C终止正在运行的sim_vehicle.py。然后：

sim_vehicle.py --console --map

Configure connection

we connect to SITL by UDP

tpye these instructions below in the console on SITL

output add 127.0.0.1:14550

Start MAVProxy

mavproxy.py --master tcp:127.0.0.1:5760 --sitl 127.0.0.1:5501 --out 127.0.0.1:14550 --out 127.0.0.1:14551

Run scripts (.py)

you should access to the position where the script exist on a new terminal

python scriptname.py (like test.py)

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
