Flight controller communication methods

Help & Support
1

Hi!

Does anyone have any idea on how to get two flight controllers such as the Navio2 to communicate with each other? I am trying to build two quad-copters that will basically need to fly in unison. To do that I need to get the flight controllers to communicate with each other basically making one the master and the other the slave. Anyone have any idea on how to do that?

Would mounting a raspberry pi on top on each of the navio2’s help in communicating? Im looking for these drones to be able to understand each others movements and move with respect to the other.

Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Hi hsnazt,

That’s pretty advanced, you have to dig in the Navio2 APM code.
Note that both quadcopter will need proper positionnement not only duplicating the movement as there will always be differences in the environment.
