Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Gimbal()

mavsdk::Gimbal::Gimbal(System &system)

Constructor. Creates the plugin for a specific System.

The plugin is typically created as shown below:

auto gimbal = Gimbal(system);

Parameters

  • System& system - The specific system associated with this plugin.

Gimbal()

mavsdk::Gimbal::Gimbal(std::shared_ptr< System > system)

Constructor. Creates the plugin for a specific System.

The plugin is typically created as shown below:

auto gimbal = Gimbal(system);

Parameters

  • std::shared_ptr< System > system - The specific system associated with this plugin.

~Gimbal()

mavsdk::Gimbal::~Gimbal()

Destructor (internal use only).

Gimbal()

mavsdk::Gimbal::Gimbal(const Gimbal &other)

Copy constructor.

Parameters

Member Function Documentation

set_pitch_and_yaw_async()

void mavsdk::Gimbal::set_pitch_and_yaw_async(float pitch_deg, float yaw_deg, const ResultCallback callback)

Set gimbal pitch and yaw angles.

This sets the desired pitch and yaw angles of a gimbal. Will return when the command is accepted, however, it might take the gimbal longer to actually be set to the new angles.

This function is non-blocking. See 'set_pitch_and_yaw' for the blocking counterpart.

Parameters

set_pitch_and_yaw()

Result mavsdk::Gimbal::set_pitch_and_yaw(float pitch_deg, float yaw_deg) const

Set gimbal pitch and yaw angles.

This sets the desired pitch and yaw angles of a gimbal. Will return when the command is accepted, however, it might take the gimbal longer to actually be set to the new angles.

This function is blocking. See 'set_pitch_and_yaw_async' for the non-blocking counterpart.

Parameters

  • float pitch_deg -
  • float yaw_deg -

Returns

Result - Result of request.

set_mode_async()

void mavsdk::Gimbal::set_mode_async(GimbalMode gimbal_mode, const ResultCallback callback)

Set gimbal mode.

This sets the desired yaw mode of a gimbal. Will return when the command is accepted. However, it might take the gimbal longer to actually be set to the new angles.

This function is non-blocking. See 'set_mode' for the blocking counterpart.

Parameters

set_mode()

Result mavsdk::Gimbal::set_mode(GimbalMode gimbal_mode) const

Set gimbal mode.

This sets the desired yaw mode of a gimbal. Will return when the command is accepted. However, it might take the gimbal longer to actually be set to the new angles.

This function is blocking. See 'set_mode_async' for the non-blocking counterpart.

Parameters

Returns

Result - Result of request.

set_roi_location_async()

void mavsdk::Gimbal::set_roi_location_async(double latitude_deg, double longitude_deg, float altitude_m, const ResultCallback callback)

Set gimbal region of interest (ROI).

This sets a region of interest that the gimbal will point to. The gimbal will continue to point to the specified region until it receives a new command. The function will return when the command is accepted, however, it might take the gimbal longer to actually rotate to the ROI.

This function is non-blocking. See 'set_roi_location' for the blocking counterpart.

Parameters

  • double latitude_deg -
  • double longitude_deg -
  • float altitude_m -
  • const ResultCallback callback -

set_roi_location()

Result mavsdk::Gimbal::set_roi_location(double latitude_deg, double longitude_deg, float altitude_m) const

Set gimbal region of interest (ROI).

This sets a region of interest that the gimbal will point to. The gimbal will continue to point to the specified region until it receives a new command. The function will return when the command is accepted, however, it might take the gimbal longer to actually rotate to the ROI.

This function is blocking. See 'set_roi_location_async' for the non-blocking counterpart.

Parameters

  • double latitude_deg -
  • double longitude_deg -
  • float altitude_m -

Returns

Result - Result of request.

operator=()

const Gimbal& mavsdk::Gimbal::operator=(const Gimbal &)=delete

Equality operator (object is not copyable).

Parameters

Returns

 const Gimbal & -
