but there's no infromation about how do I wire my flowdeckV2 hardware (not in aspect of software) on my crazyflie !!
there's no schematic of how do I wire from flowdeckV2 to my drone ..

Hm, maybe I'm missing something. You don't need to wire or solder anything. You should have some of these deck connectors (a short pair, and a long pair) which attach to the bottom of the CF. https://store.bitcraze.io/collections/s ... -connector

Then you press the flow deck onto those, and it makes all the necessary electrical connections. Make sure you have the correct side facing the CF, and it is pointing the right way.

This has a quick display of attaching the flow deck, at the beginning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGvt6Nwja3E

Hi, there is a getting started guide that should get you up and running with the flow deck: https://www.bitcraze.io/getting-started-with-flow-deck/. Once you are flying, you can follow this getting started if you want to program autonomous flight: https://www.bitcraze.io/getting-started ... ne-bundle/.
