gps_optitrack module

Optitrack used as indoor GPS.

Uses the gps_datalink implementation, but additionally sets some other defines. Optitrack can determine the heading of a vehicle, but GPS doesn't contain heading. So as a hack optitrack sends the heading in the GPS course field.

Example for airframe file

Add to your firmware section:

<module name="gps_optitrack"/>

Auto-loaded modules
