Veloxity with the ROSflight Simulator¶

Veloxity is compatible with the ROSflight sim.

We use a Rust/C Foreign-Function Interface (FFI) compiled as a static library to bridge between the two without performance penalties introduced by traditional bridges.

Because of the build steps required to properly build and link Veloxity and ROSflight, the recommended path to flying with the Veloxity firmware in sim is to clone and follow the instructions on our Devpod, which ensure reproducibility.

Once the Devpod has built successfully, simply substitute veloxity_sil_board_shim for rosflight_sim in any of the commands in the ROSflight tutorials to fly in sim with the Veloxity firmware!
