Easy to have the flight path on board the drone?

I'm wondering how much coding experience I would need to program (into the firmware?) for now just a simple lift off-hover-land on board the crazyflie. Maybe the crazyradio signals a go command to the drone and then it begins from an on board program as opposed to relaying all commands from the pyth...

Re: Flow Deck Read Current Altitude

My goal is to autonomously control the heights of multiple drones based on the current height reading of some of the other drones. (using the python scripts) log_config = LogConfig(name='Height', period_in_ms=1000) log_config.add_variable('stateEstimate.z', 'float') with SyncLogger(scf, log_config) ...

Flow Deck Read Current Altitude

I'm wondering if it is possible to communicate to the computer during flight the current height of the drone using the flow deck. EDIT: I see that within the client when connected, the altitude is displayed real time, so I guess I'm wondering how I would access that height within python. One way I c...

Re: Flowdeck with LPS? - Need help with position readings

I'm trying to fly a similar pattern and have a few questions on your set up: are you using the system with the flow deck on the bottom and the LPS tag on the top? and how stable was your flight with this combination?

Crazyflie Firmware Compiling

I'm trying to compile the firmware in Ubuntu 14.04. The only thing I've changed from the original .zip firmware is inserting the TDMA code in config.mk and deleting the .example from the makefile name. However, I'm getting an error: ~/Downloads/crazyflie-firmware-master$ sudo make CLEAN_VERSION CC s...

Re: LPS configuration

To run the Crazyflie with LPS and a flow deck would I need a special attachment? or would the flow deck just go on the bottom and the LPS deck on top?
