Overview

What is ArduPilot MCP Server Sandbox?

The ArduPilot MCP Server Sandbox is an MCP server that enables natural language control of ArduPilot drones via an LLM host such as Claude Desktop or Cline. It communicates with the drone over MAVLink TCP at 127.0.0.1:5762 and is intended for developers and drone enthusiasts who want to integrate LLM-based command interfaces with ArduPilot.

How to use ArduPilot MCP Server Sandbox?

Install Python 3.10+, run pip install -r requirements.txt, then start the server with python ardupilot_mcp_server.py. Configure your MCP host (Claude Desktop or Cline) by editing its settings file to point to the server script. The README provides exact JSON configuration examples for both hosts.

Key features of ArduPilot MCP Server Sandbox

Natural language drone control via LLM hosts
Supports ArduPilot SITL simulation and real vehicles
MAVLink communication over TCP at localhost:5762
Provides tools: arm, disarm, takeoff, change_mode, get_position, etc.
Includes star mission creation and upload capability
Works with Claude Desktop and Cline

Use cases of ArduPilot MCP Server Sandbox

Command drone arming, takeoff, and mode changes through chat
Create and upload star-shaped missions centered on current position
Retrieve current GPS position and stored missions from the drone
Automate drone operations by prompting an LLM with natural language

Frequently asked questions

What are the prerequisites to run the server?

Python 3.10+, an ArduPilot instance (SITL or real drone), and MAVLink reachable at `tcp:127.0.0.1:5762`.

How do I set up the simulator?

Use Mission Planner’s built‑in simulator: launch Mission Planner, click “Simulation”, select “Multirotor”, then click “Stable”. The simulator listens on `tcp:127.0.0.1:5762`.

What MCP tools does the server expose?

It exposes ten tools: arm, disarm, takeoff, change_mode, get_position, clear_mission, download_mission, upload_star_mission, and start_mission.

Can this server be used with a real drone?

Yes, as long as the real ArduPilot drone provides MAVLink access via TCP on `127.0.0.1:5762`.

Which MCP hosts are supported?

The README provides configuration examples for Claude Desktop and for Cline (VS Code extension).
