Hello All I am working on a quadcopter based swarm project for my college thesis. I am running the crazyflie as a controller for a bigger quad. I need to run 6 in swarm. So far I have tuned the quadcopter pid's and am getting very good position hold with one quad. As soon as i add multiple quads th...

I currently have three crazyflies. I have recently just flashed all three the Crazyflie 1.0 using the latest firmware from: https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-firmware 1 out of the 3 starts up fine and only makes the 'start-up' melody once. The 2/3 play the sound 'start-up' melody twice, about 1 ...

(Admins please move if this is an appropriate section for this topic) I am currently trying to modify the cfclient to add in additional control algorithms to control Crazeflie 1.0 autonomously through a motion capture system (optiTrack Flex 13). I am trying to understand how the cfclient kinect is i...

This is some great insight! I am so glad to have this crucial information that you just can't read / anticipate especially in a project sense! I am currently attempting to develop the architecture for the system and I am brand new to this and trying to understand how I can integrate control algorith...

Thank you! I was hoping that there was someone out there similar. I am from Monash University in Melbourne, Australia. I am starting from the very beginning and was after some pointers to get me started: 1. Did you modify the Cfclient to interact with the quads or you created a whole new GUI 2. Any ...

Hi,

has anyone tried controlling multiple quad copters autonomously for SWARM formations?

I'm currently undertaking a research project and I'll be using OptiTrak Flex13 Motion capture system.

Just wondering if anyone had advice or suggestions or just a general chat!

Hi Catalyst,

I am in a similar position as you, I can't get the GUI running on my Mac. I am currently running OSX 10.9.5.

Any Mac OSX users able to help shed some light ?

I am experiencing the same problem - I have pursuit the homebrew approach.

Has anyone had something similar to this?

I can execute the client but once I have entered the command "python bin/cfclient"

I have the error: "No pysub instillation found, exiting!"
