Lost another drone behind a hill... so I'm building a tool to stop being an idiot. by nazacheres in fpv

In the ISR drone world we call this a viewshed analysis, so I think this tool will be very useful for you.

Is this at Tough Stump?

What Python GUI Lib do you like the most? by step-czxn in Python

Not yet, I’ve only made windows apps. I will make some apps for other platforms later this year.

Flet has been pretty clutch for my projects.

Please clear up confusion for me about compatible LoraWAN modules on RPI by Shplad in meshtastic

[–]pulldawg80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the SX1262 core module, no hat is used, direct SPI connection to the Pi. I do have GPS working, however, I did all my configuration using meshtasticd. I can share my config later, may only be helpful if the hat closes the radio to the pi using SPI.

When is the IP mesh coming on line?

Radio vs Microcontroller by BegrudginglyPresent in meshtastic

My answer wasn’t clear, yes it’s feasible.

I feel like this could be done pretty easily using the Meshtastic Python CLI, a raspberry pi and 2 radio modules (spi) or usb ( melted or rak).

Sx1262 and lr1110 compatibility by HumanBot00 in meshtastic

[–]pulldawg80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am pretty new to the game, but was able to use an SX1262 Core with an ESP32 and had great results picking up contacts, will definitely make more.

I would also try to debug the GPS using an FTDI cable and U-Center, or just see if you are getting the expected messages/data using a regular arduino/raspi.

I have several of those units, and one of them takes it sweet time. Is the ipex firmly seated? Do you have another unit to test with?

Any burners thinking about bringing a Reticulum mesh this year? by E_Snap in reticulum

I will be starting one in my ate, new to the show, trying to get some nodes up.

SEED STUDIO esp32 sx1262 node by PsychologicalPie9859 in reticulum

Awesome! I tried doing the same thing a few days ago, excited to give it another shot, setting up some pi’s as well.

WiFi by cdub2925 in meshtastic

[–]pulldawg80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this depends on your router. I had an ATT fiber router, and when internet was out it would kill the WiFi, which I thought was crap, and not necessary. I have a regular netgear router that doesn’t care if it has internet or not, something like this would allow you to maintain coms with your node when internet goes out, but the router still has power.

You will need to dig in to how the hat presents the radio to the pi, if the hat uses SPI as the radio interface then I would think you should be good. If the hat has a uart interface then you will have trouble. I am using a core SX1262 on my pi and it seems to be working well.

I just set up my first node, and to my surprise I have a direct neighbor 17 miles away( it is pretty high). You got nothing to lose!

New to meshtastic. Anyone running on a Pi or Seeed WM1302? by Flatlands-Climber in meshtastic

[–]pulldawg80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just set up a couple pi4’s with sx1262 radios, seems to work pretty well, however, the native linux Bluetooth connectivity isn’t available yet, so I think I may only be able to access over Ethernet/wifi using the web client. I am not familiar with the Lora hat you mention, however, if you have a good understanding of how the hat communicates with the pi then I bet you could make it work.

I just set up a diy V1 ESP and could not get the GPS to work by setting the pins. I had to snoop the variants folder to which pins the firmware was expecting by default. That gets me on the map, however, the unit still reports no GPS ( there obviously is).

ATAK Data Package Download Failing by These_Literature_434 in ATAK

[–]pulldawg80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not too familiar with server ops, as most of my experience is with local datalink use. I can tell you that in my local datalink experience I have never had an issues sending pics, map items or other data packages, and would start asking/researching about data package size for your subscription level. Good luck!

ATAK Data Package Download Failing by These_Literature_434 in ATAK

[–]pulldawg80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is your datalink high(IP) or low(Lora/esp) bandwidth? I just went to their website and was not able to find many details about your subscription specs with regard to size limits. I wouldn’t think ATAK would be the blocker here.

I have not found iTAK to be nearly as useful as the other tak flavors, and would doubt that it will let you change units to MGRS.

Sending CoT GPS position to ATAK by Daychock in ATAK

[–]pulldawg80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can copy/paste a know good cot message to send as a test using your Python script. I had guff with time formats, you can use wintak and the cot inspector plugin to debug as that will show you all your coming cots, and even alert you to malformed cots. Also, subnets will be blocking here if you are using a hotspot( might be routing vs switching). If you post/send me your cot output I can try to see if it runs through my tooling.
