ArduPilot Mission Planner

What works

Almost everything works as it would under Windows.

Including Wireless data transfer via USB

What does not

• Update Link not always working
• Live Video streaming not working due to additional software unable to install
• Opening of log files only possible if within main directory (or else get a "Invalid character in path" message)
• In Config/Settings if the "Advanced Parameters" tab is clicked it will crash
• Trying to upload firmware causes crash
• Com port detection works best if device connected first then Mission Planner started (if using USB Cable)

Workarounds

• Update can be done by downloading latest version and manually installing it. (Mission Planner updates)
• Log files can be copied into main directory and then opened from there
• If using USB cable connect device first, then start Mission Planner.
• Connecting straight to a specific Com port may cause crash - Try "Auto" setting in Com port list

What was not tested

Due to vast functions and settings not everything has been tested. 

Also multiple types of aircraft and vehicles are possible currently only arducopter has been tested. (hexa and octa)

Hardware tested

Graphics:

• GPU: Nvidia
• Driver: proprietary

Additional Comments

Would welcome testing done by owners of other aircraft / vehicles. In particular Arduplane, Ardurover would be nice.
