So frustrating trying to get this PS3 controller working. The above steps do not work for me.

edit: I finally got it working somehow by leaving the MotioninJoy set to Playstation 3 mode and then doing the Configure Device Mapping on the CF Client.

Do you have the 6-DOF version of the Crazyflie? If so, that would explain it.

Actually, sometimes it's hard to get any reading at all from the D+/- solder joints. Many times, it's not zero but it's not a value either. When I try measuring with my friend's Crazyradio at the D+/- points, the multimeter flashes 1900 then goes to 1. In any case, I've checked the red and black to ...

I tried checking the USB cable (as you and DesTinY suggested) and I think the green and white wires are indeed correct (had to be swapped from their original orientation) for my particular cable. As for checking for a short between D- and D+, if I'm doing it correctly, then I see a reading of 763:

FYI, here's how I setup my multimeter, just in case...

Thanks foosel. That helps and yet I'm still rather clueless as to what to do next, do I measure across each resistor?

Well I have a multimeter, but I wouldn't know how to check for a short circuit exactly.

@DesTinY: I have access to my friend's Crazyradio and it does not behave the same when plugging into my Rasp Pi (i.e. LEDs go out instead of staying on)

I just tried swapping green and white but still no luck. Still lights up red and green LEDs solid though.

Any other suggestions?

So I guess something is really wrong with my board?

I finally got it working! By looking in "/tmp/cfheadless.log" I could see the errors. One was that I had changed the default user from "pi" to "skube" but missed changing both instances of "pi" in the cfheadless shell script. The other was I got the error mess...
