hi I have 2 question about programming crazyflie 2.0 from VM

1) So I followed the steps from https://www.bitcraze.io/getting-started ... ne-bundle/
to download idle3 on the crazyflie VM. But the issue is I cannot open idle3 but idle. Is that an issue?

2) Second question if it is okay when I was trying to send the basic code from https://www.bitcraze.io/getting-started ... ne-bundle/ to make drone fly I keep getting a syntax error from idle? It does not specify what exact syntax is invalid. What should I do?

Hi,

1) If when you open IDLE is it for python 3, it is not an issue. The point here is to have idle on Python 3. On the VM it should be python 3.6.

2) If you are getting syntax error, there must be some information in the IDLE console about what went wrong. The console should indicate where the problem is. I have just tried to copy-paste this code in the VM on my side and I do not get any syntax error, the script executes well (I get a runtime error about not being able to find a Crazyradio which is correct since I do not have it connected).

Thank you. I figured out the syntax issue. But the remaining issue is the fact that it cannot send the code due to package loss. Would you know why?
