Re: [Hover] Selecting an ultrasonic sensor and interface

Tobias is on vacation so I had a look. Do you still have problems? I pulled your branch, compiled and the copter starts normally. I see that your latest commit corrects the I2C address so I assume something is working, or?

Re: Error message while loading VM

Hi, Can you create and run any other virtual machine with VirtualBox? You can try creating a new virtual machine and launching it and see if you get the VirtualBox bios coming. I Google a bit and it could be a problem related to the VirtualBox installation: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.ph...

Re: Initial calibration

Hi, To be able to fly the Crazyflie you can change the trim settings on the flight control tab, this one is not limited. It will not correct pitch and roll but it will correct the setpoint sent to the copter. I will look at it to see where this 10degree limit is. Did the Crazyflie comes out of the b...

Re: VM G++ installation requires password

Hi Erling,

The password is crazyflie. The VM is an unmodified XUbuntu distribution so you should have no problem compiling C++ after installing g++.

Best regards,

Re: Crazyflie Mapping?

To send setpoints you don't really need log and param. However log and param can be useful if you want to get sensor values or to configure things (param is required to activate altitude hold for example).

Re: Initial calibration

Hi,

That looks very off. If you launch the bootloader there is a way to enter calibration for pitch and roll: http://wiki.bitcraze.se/projects:crazyf ... ie_service
You can try entering and programming + or - 45 for the roll.

Re: initial test of crazyflie board

Hi Steve,

A micro USB cable connected to a PC will work. The same cables and chargers are used for most of the mobile phones (anything except iPhone) so if you have a mobile phone charger it is working as well.

Re: Crazyflie Mapping?

Hi, Using the python API you can control the Crazyflie programatically. See the ramp example that makes the motors spin: https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-clients-python/blob/master/examples/ramp.py With this API you can start playing around sending commands to the copter and see what happens.
