Other than what I suggested in your other message about quote marks, the steps look correct as per the course.
Since most users are migrating over to python 3, you might want to try this. There have been other forum talk on this topic [https://community.dojofordrones.com/t/wsl2-instead-of-virtualbox/711]. You can just use the latest version of Ubuntu and Copter as well.
It is best to go through each step so you understand it, but here I provide an easy means to setup the system. .
Notes
- I am substituting ‘drone’ for ‘courseRoot’.
- I have included .bashrc parameters to conveniently cd into ‘drone’ and ‘ArduCopter’.
- I have included mkdir /drone/dk
- It does not include installation of QGC.
- It doesn’t include some dependencies and programs needed for Precision Landing simulation, for which I have not tested it
Hopefully it all works for you.
