Should Ardupilot be installed if using Dronekit?

[GLies1]

From what I've been able to find, it appears that Dronekit is not fully supported for PX4 yet. If we are planning on using Dronekit should we have ardupilot installed in parallel as described in the initial setup? If so, are the instructions the same if using Ubuntu? The calibration process also seems to change, are there specific directions on calibrating with Ardupilot installed? Any help is appreciated.

Hi gjlies,

Thank you for your interest in the Intel Aero drone.DroneKit and PX4 are currently working on getting full compatibility. As of DroneKit-python 2.2.0 there is basic support for mission handling and vehicle monitoring.You can find useful information here: https://dev.px4.io/en/robotics/dronekit.htmlRegards,Alexandra
