Get Up and Running Quickly

This tutorial will be finished soon!

Follow this procedure to get OcPoC-Mini Cyclone up and running quickly. Make sure you have everything listed below to begin this tutorial.

Required Hardware

You will need:

  • OcPoC-Mini Cyclone
  • Micro SD card (4 GB or more)
  • Micro USB to USB cable

Required Software

We will start by downloading the files required for the SD card. Open a terminal and type the following commands.

$ git clone https://github.com/Aerotenna/OcPoC_Mini_Cyclone_Files.git
$ git clone https://github.com/Aerotenna/ardupilot.git

This will put the directories 'OcPoC_Mini_Cyclone_Files' and 'ardupilot' on your computer. We will delete this directory when we are done don't worry!

While we are in the terminal we will install a few tools. If you purchased your SD card from Aerotenna you only need to execute the first two commands. Otherwise use all three.

$sudo apt-get update
$sudo apt-get install gtkterm
$sudo apt-get install gparted

Once you have executed those commands, you are ready to proceed to the next section. If you have purchased your SD card from Aerotenna proceed to 'Load Files onto SD Card'. If you are not using an Aerotenna SD Card proceed to 'Partition SD Card'.
