Issue details

When trying to download a .px4log through mavftp, I get the following error:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ rosrun mavros mavftp download /fs/microsd/log/2016-11-01/21_43_29.px4log
Prigressbar disabled. install python-progressbar
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/ros/indigo/lib/mavros/mavftp", line 296, in <module>
    main()
  File "/opt/ros/indigo/lib/mavros/mavftp", line 292, in main
    args.func(args)
  File "/opt/ros/indigo/lib/mavros/mavftp", line 152, in do_download
    buf = from_fd.read(FTP_PAGE_SIZE)
  File "/opt/ros/indigo/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mavros/ftp.py", line 107, in read
    _check_raise_errno(ret)
  File "/opt/ros/indigo/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mavros/ftp.py", line 39, in _check_raise_errno
    raise IOError(ret.r_errno, os.strerror(ret.r_errno))
IOError: [Errno 110] Connection timed out

So I'm able to open the file, as the main roslaunch mavros window displays:

[ INFO] [1491328759.740312395]: FTP:Open /fs/microsd/log/2016-11-01/21_43_29.px4log: success, session 0, size 263247

But I get the [Errno 110] Connection timed out error on reading the file.

@TSC21 because FTP stable only via USB, and main usage of mavros via TELEMx there no reason to implement that mode, and it is not compatible with current fuse-like interface.

So:

No strong reason for implementation
Logging may be done via mavlink and intel's router

Flight logs often too big for FTP, also for some reason it is stable only with USB connection (usb on pihxawk - ttyACM%d).
On UART it only suitable when you need to modify extras rc or mixer file.
Also after file download script tell FCU to calculate CRC32 of entire file and here also may be timeout.

Note: FTP is slow, but QGC download implementation twice faster than mavros.

Where may be the difference @vooon?

TSC21 on 14 Apr 2017

QGC support streaming download, it require only one request message to transfer whole file.
While mine uses older request buffer, so to transfer file i should request bunch of 239-byte responses.

I'm not going to implement that mode, just use QGC.

vooon on 14 Apr 2017

I'm not going to implement that mode, just use QGC.

I think this is a need, given that we offer the FTP possibility on MAVROS. I will look into it and get back with news (and a PR).

@vooon as you wish. I think one of the main usages of MAVROS to some people is also use it as a replacement of QGC. Still, we are lacking support for ULog streaming.

TSC21 on 25 Jun 2017

It's a usability thing. File transfer is ridiculously slow over telemetry, and pulling a log of any decent size (10-15 MB) will take too long even with an optimised implementation.

Regarding ULog streaming - Yes, it's a nice-to-have, but you can just use mavlink-router. (https://github.com/01org/mavlink-router).

True. Still, I think it's our wish as MAVROS developers and maintainers to have it full-featured.

TSC21 on 26 Jun 2017

Actually for newer drone i will setup router between tty and mavros.
Because TELEM1 will be occupied by RFD and TELEM2. So i need router inside FCU too.

And i don't thinking that mavros is replacement for any GCS, it is set of API to write your autonomous control software.
Anyway you need GCS to tune firmware.
