Process has died

[sbraune]

So I can get one ARDrone to work with ROS but with lack of documentation on how to get two working, I am stuck. Here is my All.launch file

<group ns="ardrone1">
     <node name="ardrone_driver" pkg="ardrone_autonomy" type="ardrone_driver" args="-ip 192.168.12.10" />

</group>

<group ns="ardrone2">
 <node name="ardrone_driver" pkg="ardrone_autonomy" type="ardrone_driver" args="-ip 192.168.12.11" />

After running the program, either the first one or the second one will give me this message.

ardrone2/ardrone_driver1-6] process has died [pid 24117, exit code -11, cmd /home/tamucc/fuerte_workspace/sandbox/ardrone_autonomy/bin/ardrone_driver -ip 192.168.12.11 __name:=ardrone_driver1

Any help on how to resolve this issue will be grateful. I am using ROS Fuerte

ROS Fuerte is End-Of-Lifed and is not supported anymore. The plugin code in Fuerte branch is also outdated. Please consider upgrading at least to Hydro. For running multiple instances, please check issue #56.

Thanks for the reply, though you should make that clear on the branch readme that it is no longer being supported.

[mani-monaj]

You are right. I will update the branch READMEs.

Thanks for the help. I am only using Fuerte because that is what my lab was using when I joined the project. Hopefully the change to Hydro will be pretty transparent and easy. Thanks again for your contribution to the world of UAVs.

IMO It's even easier to work with this driver on Hydro since you can install the binaries via apt-get. good luck flying robots :)
