How to use

See examples folder for more!

Use e.g this settings.json to configure multirotor in Airsim

Once you have Airsim up and running (some examples below on how run), execute the snippet:

use airsim_client::{DrivetrainType, MultiRotorClient, NetworkResult, Path, Vector3, YawMode};
use async_std::task;

async fn connect_drone() -> NetworkResult<()> {
    let address = "<Airsim IP here>:41451"; // set with env variable
    let vehicle_name = ""; // use default vehicle name
    log::info!("Start!");

    // connect
    log::info!("connect");
    let client = MultiRotorClient::connect(address, vehicle_name).await?;

    // confirm connect
    log::info!("confirm connection");
    let res = client.confirm_connection().await?;
    log::info!("Response: {:?}", res);

    // arm drone
    log::info!("arm drone");
    client.arm_disarm(true).await?;
    log::info!("Response: {:?}", res);

    // take off
    log::info!("take off drone");
    client.take_off_async(20.0).await?;
    log::info!("take off completed");

    log::info!("move on path");
    client
        .move_on_path_async(
            Path(vec![
                Vector3::new(-25.0, 0.0, -20.0),
                Vector3::new(-50.0, 50.0, -20.0),
                Vector3::new(-50.0, -50.0, -25.0),
            ]),
            5.0,
            1000.0,
            DrivetrainType::MaxDegreeOfFreedom,
            YawMode::new(false, 90.0),
            None,
            None,
        )
        .await?;
    log::info!("done!");

    log::info!("go home");
    client.go_home_async(20.0).await?;
    log::info!("got home");

    log::info!("land drone");
    let landed = client.land_async(20.0).await?;
    log::info!("drone landed: {landed}");

    log::info("Disarm drone")
    client.arm_disarm(false).await?;
    client.enable_api_control(false).await?;
    Ok(())
}

fn main() -> NetworkResult<()> {
    env_logger::init();
    task::block_on(connect_drone())
}

airsim-client's Issues

Is the development continuing?

Hey @Sollimann , for a company project, I decided use AirSim with Rust API. Yours were the only one. I am at the experimenting phase with examples and found some minor mistakes. I will soon create some PRs. Will you continue to manage this project?
