Crazyflie 2.1 - Autonomous Flight No Takeoff
Posted: Sat Sep 21, 2019 12:58 am
Hi,
I am trying to get the Crazyflie 2.1 to takeoff and hover using a Python script. Looking at cflib, I see that there is a high level commander that has a command called takeoff(). This command is also a part of the autonomous_sequence_high_level.py found at https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-l ... r/examples.
The problem I am having is that when running this code for example, the Crazyflie does not have enough thrust to takeoff. I have tried using send_setpoint() directly to control the thrust, and I can get it off the ground, but it is very difficult to control. Currently, my Crazyflie is just in the base configuration, but whatever thrust level is commanded by takeoff() to move a specified distance vertically is not enough to offset the weight. Could anyone help me determine why this is the case? I am also wondering how it would takeoff if I were to add a small amount of weight such as the MoCap Deck and markers.
Thanks!
