I followed the link in the readme Oliver, it directs me to the 2014.01.0 version of the firmware, which we already have installed. Should we install one of the other branches instead? The problem with the automatic control is that the control program doesn't guide the flie towards the goal but rathe...

Hi! Tried it out today, worked way better and things get published on cfjoy :) But the control doesn't work yet. We've noticed that your tracking works a lot faster in your video and your goal and cf_xyz had the same orientation. Ours is rotated 180 degrees in the xy-plane in respect to each other. ...

Wow, thanks for the thorough update of the read me We'll try it out after our exams. We will also post our report on our project

Soo... When I listen to the /cfjoy topic it doesn't change the roll, pitch or yaw angle, it just sets the thrust to 32000 something and says hover mode true when we try to track and control a dummy flie (a battery on a string :P). The previous error doesn't come up again.. Seems our project might be...

Ok, so we get the following error message: [ERROR] [WallTime: 1400679220.581447] bad callback: <bound method KinectTracker.incomingDepthData of <trackManager.KinectTracker object at 0x92f5bb4>> Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/ros/hydro/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rospy/topics.py&q...

Hi Oliver! From your feedback i guess it might be something with the transforms. I'll make a cube as well :) The problem we solved to start the tracking was to understand what the following meant in the read me: GUI log | pm | at minimum roll, pitch and yaw checked. log | pm checked log | pm | set h...

Hi Oliver!

We've got the tracking working fine but when we press the L1-button the flie just takes of like crazy. This is the graph i get from frames.pdf

Any ideas of what might be the problem?

At long last, we have gotten somewhere. Here's a picture of our ROS tree: http://www68.zippyshare.com/thumb/73251129/file.html I think it looks good, but really I have no idea :P This is the picture we get in Rviz, whats wrong with the picture/transform? http://www68.zippyshare.com/thumb/68983875/fi...

We were running on a virtual machine using virtualbox wich seemed to mess up something with the usb drivers for the cameras. Switching to VMware player ...

Thanks for the help!

I'll have a look at the ROS forum and post here if I find a solution
