groundStation

Make Process

First, if submodules were not recursevly added through git. Run this command if you have made any attempt to make vrpn manually. run 'git submodule update --init --recursive'

Now that you have all of the files necissary.

cd into the groundstation folder. cd groundStation make vrpn make

run the program with sudo privledges sudo -E ./BackEnd

If you wish to change the way the backend communicates to the quad and vice versa, look at src/config.h. This provides a list of environment variables which you can set and use for your computer or time of use. Because the backend must be ran with sudo privledges, you will need to preserve the env. vars. with sudo rights. Hence the "-E" flag.
