Bitcraze Forums

Hello. I have a 1st Gen CF+CR for which I would like to update both the CF and CRadio to the most recent firmware. Until recently the firmware upgrade process seemed to be simple enough... All I had to do was go to the Bitbucket "Downloads" page and grab the latest precompiled .bin file. A...

That should be possible if you reimplement the protocol on the arduino. Is there a particular sketch that you can upload to the Arduino like you would do with any generic nRF24L01? Or do you have to get down and dirty with AT Commands and all that jazz :? I have an FTDI-USB adapter called the "...

I'd be very interested in how this setup works as well. Initially, I was looking into the potential for using the Crazyradio to control another UAV with a generic nRF24L01. Unfortunately my Crazyradio seems to have disappeared from my workbench though I still have plenty of generic nRF transceivers....

I was wondering if the Crazyradio could be used in conjunction with generic nRF2401 transceivers like the ones they sell on Amazon- http://www.amazon.com/nRF24L01-Wireless-Transceiver-Arduino-Compatible/dp/B00E594ZX0. If so, it would be great if the nRF protocol could be used as an alternative to ub...

Whoops... I just figured out that the https git clone didn't actually clone the neopixel branch, so I guess I've got to do it all over again anyway. BTW- Great job on the VM! It really does pretty much work out of the box! Considering all the updated packages, drivers etc... that have to fit into pl...

Wow, i'm surprised that in my impatience I actually managed to figure out all the steps you outline except for the part about editing the neopixelring.c file in Eclipse. I realized my error about pin 19 by cross checking against the closeup photos you posted in the blog and connected to the pins as ...

OK so based on the blog posts and pictures I think I figured out the pinouts, but I would like to confirm before I do any soldering... It looks like Neopixel GND-> CF PIN 19/AGND, Neopixel VCC->CF PIN 16/VCOM, Neopixel IN-> PIN 12/EXT_SPI_MOSI/AIN. Does this look correct? Also, the latest instructio...

It just so happens that I've ended up with an extra Neopixel ring, and while looking up things to do with it... Voila! It looks great on the CF! I'd love to try it but I'm a little unclear if there's any additional software modding that needs to be done or if its written right into the new firmware....

I came so close to making it work but I couldnt get the Puzzlebox Synapse binary to compile. Without which I have no means of communicating with Puzzlebox Brainstorms... HOWEVER... I might've found something 1000 times better... At least if your a Javascript developer... Cylon.js, a new js robotics ...

For anyone unfamiliar with commercial EEG headsets like the Mindwave Mobile this will sound completely absurd, but alas it is completely doable! This instructable pretty much lays out all the steps necessary- http://www.instructables.com/id/Brain-Controlled-RC-Helicopter/. The instructable was writt...
