[SOLVED]CF2 Launched into wall as soon as cfclient connected

I finally got my hands on a PS Dual Shock 3, connected it to my mac, started cfclient and connected to the Radio and CF2 just launched into the wall like a missile - missed my face by inches :) So what did I do wrong here? Is it likely the controller is faulty , I don't have PS so how do I test it?

Re: Crazyflie 2.0 feedback

dbrgn - thanks for that. I loaded the VM client to see what I was missing and it seems cfclient on my MAC is not showing the battery and link quality bars properly and they are not labelled at all. The only thing showing is 2 thin horizontal bars with no text labels I think I might just start using ...

CF2: Which console is easier to fly with Phone or PS2

Help advise a Newby to flying. I have never used a PS2 console before or joystick for that matter. So I am trying the IOS crazyflie control and I am not having much success. Dragging my thumbs around feels like there is some latency and not intuitive to me. Bear in mind I am not very co-ordinated :)...

Re: CF2-Firmware-Dfu: Flashed without any issues

Thanks I will give it a try. I am still struggling with my 'fat-fingers' to push that button and know that it has made contact :)

Battery Level Indicator.
----------------------------
So I have not had time to dig around the code to see what readings you can get on the battery, however a battery level readout might be good if it were possible.

CF2-Firmware-Dfu: Flashed without any issues

Hi I thought I would share this as it took a while to get the CF2 into dfu mode though. Mostly because the switch is so small I had no idea if I was pressing it on or not :) I was also worried the switch might break. Because I was having issues getting it into DFU mode I ran dfu-util -l in a loop un...

Re: Installing Python Client on iMac with Yosemite 10.10.1

I found I had many issues with MacPorts after upgrading to Yosemite from Mavericks. I really had a Macports that had evolved from Snow Leopard and I reckoned it was time to clean up. This does take a bit of time, but it was worth it in the long run. It also takes some bandwidth and Data Volume. I fo...

CF2 Does Battery drain when switched off

Just charging the battery for the first time and I was wondering about conserving battery when not using the CF2. So I have 2 questions. I assume that if the battery is connected and the CF2 is switched off, then it is still draining power - all be it slowly. To completely conserve battery when not ...

[SOLVED] bitcraze.se/start page has wrong Led for POST

I just deleted my previous thread because I thought I had a POST problem as the M1 led was not flashing 5 times as per the guide http://bitcraze.se/setup . If the M1 LED blinks GREEN five times fast, then the test has passed. Actually the M4 led flashes 5 times and not M1 so it should probably read....
