Raspberry Pi GC Connection Lost error

Software
1

Ground Control runs fine on my mac, but I am running into an error when I try to run GC on my Raspberry Pi 3. I am connecting to /dev/ttyACM0. I have even ‘chmod ugo+wrx /dev/ttyACM0’.

I get messages that i am “Connected”, but then Connection timed out and i get “Connection Lost”.
The GC console says that Pyserial version 3.x is needed. version 2.6 is installed.

any suggestions?

It’s going to depend on your version of Python

Thank you

sudo pip install --upgrade pyserial <---- fixed my problem. Now on to building my frame and getting everything up and running. Thanks a ton.

May the force be with you. I’m trying to set up a Pi3 right now. I may have questions down the road about your Pi setup and experiences.

Thank you
