Select ArduPilot Board
This section helps you complete the Select an ArduPilot Board step of the Hardware Setup process (using the Hardware Setup screens).
In this step, you will select your ArduPilot board and the corresponding board configuration as part of the hardware setup process.
By selecting the appropriate autopilot and board configuration, you enable the UAV Toolbox Support Package for ArduPilot® Autopilots to build the firmware with the correct target board configuration and communicate directly with your hardware. This selection also allows you to run ArduPilot on your host machine for both SITL simulations and actual hardware.
