Guide

Welcome to the P450 ROS 2 User Manual (Prometheus450 / P450, suitable for indoor LiDAR-based localization flight).

1. If you want to complete your first indoor flight as soon as possible, we recommend starting with the Quick Start Guide. In operating sequence, this chapter covers the feature overview, ground control station and software downloads, remote controller and battery charging, preparing the remote controller and aircraft, the communication link and ground control station connection, positioning source switching and LiDAR-based localization environment requirements, as well as manual flight, helping you proceed from unpacking and preparation to your first takeoff.

2. If you have completed the basic flight procedures and want to learn about advanced capabilities, read the following sections as needed:

   • Advanced flight: position control through the Prometheus ground control station, indoor position-control flight, and more;
   • Advanced LiDAR-based localization flight: LiDAR-based obstacle avoidance, LiDAR mapping, D435i visual obstacle avoidance, D435i click-to-track, G1 click-to-track, and more;
   • Application development: control application development, vision application development, and planning application development.

To first learn about the product's overall capabilities, hardware components, and technical specifications, we recommend reading the Product overview, Packing list, Hardware overview (including the D435i / G1 configurations), and Technical specifications (including the D435i / G1 specifications).
