Re: Random Behavior while hovering/flying autonoumously

Originally, I thought that CF is taking yawRate as input, and my control input was kp*(measured_yaw-desired_yaw), which in my case the desired value for yaw angle was zero. However, after you mentioned that I should send yaw (not its rate), I still think this method should work if I send a control v...

Re: Random Behavior while hovering/flying autonoumously

It looks like your controller is increasing the thrust when the CF starts to descend (after t=25s) but that it does not help and the CF is continuing down anyway. Are you running the stock firmware or do you have any modifications/decks that might change the normal behaviour? I had a quick look at ...

Re: Random Behavior while hovering/flying autonoumously

Do you see the same problem when flying a single CF only? I had a brief look at your code and I noticed that this is not threadsafe. In order to exchange data, you should either use queues (https://docs.python.org/3/library/queue.html) or semaphores (https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html...

Random Behavior while hovering/flying autonoumously

Hello all, Our research lab have decided to use Crazyflies as our platform for controlling autonomous UAVs. We have Optitrack motion capture system in our lab and I'm trying to merge our existing approach with crazyflies. In brief, the problem is that I do not get a consistent result each time I try...
