Starting the simulation software individually

1. Create a simulation directory in home.

cd && mkdir -p ardu-sim/parameters

2. Copy simulation software binaries and default parameters to the directory.

cp -a $HOME/ardupilot/build/sitl/bin/. $HOME/ardu-sim/

cp $HOME/ardupilot/Tools/autotest/default_params/copter.parm $HOME/ardu-sim/parameters/copter.parm

cp $HOME/ardupilot/Tools/autotest/models/plane.parm $HOME/ardu-sim/parameters/plane.parm

cp $HOME/ardupilot/Tools/autotest/default_params/rover.parm $HOME/ardu-sim/parameters/rover.parm

cp $HOME/ardupilot/Tools/autotest/default_params/sub.parm $HOME/ardu-sim/parameters/sub.parm

3. Get into the simulation directory.

cd && cd ardu-sim/

5. Open another terminal and create logs directory.

cd && mkdir -p ardu-sim/logs && cd ardu-sim/logs/

6. Start MAVProxy command line ground control station.

mavproxy.py --master tcp:127.0.0.1:5760

Starting a copter simulation individually

./arducopter -S --model + --speedup 1 --defaults parameters/copter.parm -I0
