Re: cfclient doesn't start on osx

Possibly, I'm not sure about the ins and outs of qt. I'm just happy when it works :-)

We should maybe consider to update the documentation somehow, but my feeling is that this is a bit if a moving target that changes from release to release.

Re: Read control inputs from mobile application

Hi! You write: "you can also set it to position hold, which will actually give velocity setpoints to the crazyflie". But how do I set those setpoints (keyboard, PS3-Controller)? Just use a game pad. In position hold mode, the client will send velocity setpoints when you move the sticks. Yo...

Re: crazyflie 2 won't take off properly commander.send_position_setpoint

Not sure what might be the problem. Have you checked what the estimated Z is when the Crazyflie is on the ground? The easiest way is look at the "Height" box at the bottom of the "Flight control" tab in the client. If there is an offset in estimated Z, the controller might aim fo...

Re: How to use scratch to control the crazyflie2.1 aircraft

I'm not aware of anyone doing this, even though we have discussed it many times. I think I heard about someone using blockly but not sure of the result.

Re: Drone Show Scripts on github?

By hackish you mean lots unstructured of code highly optimised for the given environment? Something like that. And also modified without clean up a couple of times which makes it hard to understand. My problem in understanding is that I think it is not enough to simply let the drones fly to specifi...

Re: Lighthouse Base Station Position Script Won't Run

Which brings me to a last question to close up this thread. I decided, perhaps naively, to use the Windows desktop to set up the vive base stations (while flying cf's from the bitcraze VM) because the wiki says the VR computer isn't required after set up. I also read this to mean that once you've e...

Re: Drone Show Scripts on github?

Unfortunately not, it is pretty hackish and would be hard to understand or change.
If you want to do something similar, the best starting point is probably examples/swarm/swarmSequence.py in the python lib.

Re: cfclient doesn't start on osx

OK. I'm not sure why you get a problem when installing with brew, but it seems as qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "cocoa" in "" might indicate that it is a problem with your qt installation. I found other people (using other apps) that had the same problem th...
