QGroundControl Setup
QGroundControl Configuration
When the serial protocol of the ESP32 is configured to MAVLink, QGroundControl can detect the ESP32. That is because all ESP32s will register as a MAVLink device with the GCS.
Known Issues with QGroundControl
Regarding the use of QGroundControl with the USBSerial firmware:
The GND-Unit ESP32 must be reset after every disconnect of QGroundControl. Press the reset button on the board once, then reconnect.
Regarding the use of QGroundControl with the noUARTConsole firmware:
The GND-Unit ESP32 must be reconfigured after every disconnect of QGroundControl. QGroundControl is currently triggering a reset of the settings on reconnect.
The ESP32 will appear as Component 68.

At the moment, QGroundControl will only show the settings of the ESP32 AIR-Unit even when there is a GND-Unit connected as well.
