Parameter Downloading with Swarm()

Hey I've been testing some swarm flight sequences based off of the swarm example and so far I've gotten most things working.

Re: Drone Swarming

I have successfully solved the issue. I remembered that USB connection is an option. Connected and fixed the address. Got it configured to a value that I like and it works well now.
