is your RPI connected to internet? You should be able to download nvm by using

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.31.6/install.sh | bash

Montilien

Ok wget and bash are OK but when I type " nvm install node" the Pi return "command not found"

Sinamics

Montilien
Close and reopen terminal and check if nvm command is working then.
I dont have a pi0w to test at this time.

after you have downloaded nvm, do you get the same output as below?

Montilien

Yes nvm is running but I am still notbe able to connect to UAV web_UI

Sinamics

Montilien
you need to get node installed first, by typing nvm install node

I will check the installation on a pi0w later today and publish a updated version on github.

Montilien

Ok I would not abuse of your time and so I will wait the results of your tests with Pi zero.
Best regards and have a nice day

Hi Bernt
I have re-install the last build of UAVcast Web_UI on a fresh sd card with the last release of Raspbian Lite.
At fhe beginning of installing UAVcast web The Pi zero shows;
sudo npm: command not found
sudo pm2: command not found

then installation goes on and after rebooting the Pi I still cannot acces to the Web server....but a ping to the same IP is OK....

I think problem may be the Raspbian Lite OS???
Best regards
André

I just updated Github with new pi0w nodejs install instructions.
I have also tested on a pi0w and its seems to work.

Could you please try again.

I have spent some time developing UAVcast to support Navio+ & Navio2
I think we have a working platform now, so feel free to give it a try.

Flash SD card with Emlid Raspberry image . Tested with Jessie version.
Install UAVcast as described Sinamics

Oh wow this is quick, I'll try to install with my navio straight after work when I back home tonight, thanks Sinamics !

@BillyLam @Montilien
UAVcast now supports telemetry connected to GPIO TX / RX without the need for TTL adapter and you get 💯 % signal strength. 💛
I have moved away from ser2net, and have been tested another software which is a fork of mavproxy. (light version)

This new software will only use 3% CPU and it will also give us more flexibility such as UDP broadcast and the opportunity's to stream to multiple devices.

I have updated Git whit this latest version. Enjoy

Hi Bernt
Some feedback from my tests...
- Pi zero don't work with any Raspbian Image in any case
-Pi2 works fine with Emlid-Raspbian image only...
I have just a question:
I use a 4G stick HUAWEI e3372h Hilink which can work only in router mode...and give to the RPi an Ethernet connexion.(eth0 or eth1). can say me if Uavcast can work with? or If a special setting is required?
Best regards

Sinamics

Montilien
Just select Ethernet cable connected in Modem Connection and it should work just fine.

Montilien Pi zero don't work with any Raspbian Image in any case

Can you access the webinterface? what it the output of pm2 status

Montilien Pi2 works fine with Emlid-Raspbian image only

Did you test other images?
I just did a fresh install on PI3 whit RASPBIAN STRETCH LITE without problems.

BillyLam

Hello Bernt,

I just install a fresh image from emild and followed your instructions, successfully loaded into my pi through Web UI. After I config the parameters I start UAVcast from the Web UI however it does seems responding(keep loading) without any error message. I just running on my local network right now.

Thanks !

Sinamics

BillyLam
Hmm...
Could you type systemctl status UAVcast and post the output when it loading

BillyLam

Sinamics

● UAVcast.service - UAVcast Drone Software
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/UAVcast.service; enabled)
Active: inactive (dead) since Wed 2017-10-11 13:36:33 UTC; 7min ago
Process: 5603 ExecStart=/bin/bash DroneStart.sh start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)

I found out I might need to do something with ''open port'' but I remember last time I have success with local connection (non Web UI) without doing setting in my router. would this be the problem.

Sinamics

BillyLam
Can you also check if you have folder within UAVcast named emlid. Example
UAVcast/emlid/navioor UAVcast/emlid/navio2

I currently doing a fresh install of Navio myself..

BillyLam

Sinamics

It saids no such file directory

-bash: cd: UAVcast/emlid/navio2: No such file or directory
pi@navio:~/UAVcast $ cd UAVcast/emlid/navio
-bash: cd: UAVcast/emlid/navio: No such file or directory

Sinamics

BillyLam
hmm,, i think you got a permission error.
Did you download the Binary in web setup? e.g arduplane?

Please try this:
chmod 777 -R /home/pi/UAVcast/

And then configure everything from web interface again.

BillyLam

Sinamics

It's working ! Ill now try config LTE (Dynss etc) btw would you reckon I could use my phone wifi hotspot as (dongle) because the SIM I use for my 4G dongle is out of credit. (laptop connected to home wifi and Pi connect to phone hotspot) Ill keep you update.

thanks !

BillyLam

Sinamics

as you reckon It was a permission problem

I ran the cmd you provided and the pi started doing its things 😉

Sinamics chmod 777 -R /home/pi/UAVcast/
