Re: Learning the firmware

I was just about to update my last post, but you were too quick to respond! Updating the dependencies AND ubunutu on the VM fixed my issue. So now I can go back to trying to understand the firmware and write my own code to get a single motor to turn on... Thanks, you're so helpful and so patient wit...

Re: Learning the firmware

Yeah, I suppose I will have to. That's frustrating because I was just getting the hang of the VM, but I'll just have to deal with it! Thanks for your help. Is it possible to let the developers know of this issue?

Re: Learning the firmware

Re: Learning the firmware

Hi Chad,

Do you know where there are instructions to update to Python 3? I haven't been able to find how to do that on the VM specifically. Thank you for your helpfullness and patience!

Re: Learning the firmware

This looks promising. The only problem is that all of a sudden, I can't open the cfclient in the VM... when I try to manually open it through the command line, I get an error saying only Python 3+ is supported and I'm running on Python 2.7.8. I had this happen once, so I deleted and reinstalled the ...

Re: Learning the firmware

I know this is an older post, but I just read through these questions/suggestions, and I'm a little lost. I just started working with the CF1/CrazyRadio on the latest 0.6 VM and am trying to run some small codes (i.e. turn off the green and red LEDs, turn one motor on) just to get some type of movem...

New to Crazyflie - Help with software download, developing environment

Hello! I am working on a project for a class designing a program for the crazyflie to autonomously hover and, if time permits in the semester, to fly a pre-programmed path autonomously. However, I'm having trouble navigating through the bitcraze wiki and other associated sites with regards to the de...
