NAME
UAV::Pilot::WumpusRover::Packet
DESCRIPTION
Role for WumpusRover packets. These are based on the ArduPilot protocol packets, as described here:
http://code.google.com/p/ardupilot-mega/wiki/Protocol
No attempts have yet been made to test this against an existing ArduPilot implmentation, but it should be close.
Do not create Packets directly. Instead, use UAV::Pilot::WumpusRover::PacketFactory
.
Does the UAV::Pilot::Logger
role.
