Hi,

For the LPS, there is only Ubuntu 16.04 ROS support for now. We are activly working at getting the LPS to work with our client and python lib but until this work is more advanced, ROS is the best way to get started. I have never installed ROS in a virtual machine but other have succeeded so you should be able to follow the wiki documentation: https://wiki.bitcraze.io/doc:lps:index

The pycharm error says that you are missing python package, this could come from you not doing "pip install -e ." in the crazyflie-clients-python folder or you are not using the right python interpreter in pycharm. The procedure to get it to work is explained in the githiub readme: https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-c ... ndows-7810.

Finally the line "pip install -e path/to/cflib" Does not make sense to copy-paste like that. You need to replace "path/to/cflib" by the actual path to the lib. Asuming you have activated your conda environment the following sequence should work to install cflib from source:

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-lib-python
cd crazyflie-lib-python
pip install -e .

I suggest you read some documentation for pip and more generally about python if you want to start developing on the crazyflie lib and client.
