[SOLVED] Using Crazyradio in ROS Robot Operating System

[Che.]

hi,

i'd like to use crazyradio and crazyflie in ROS. i can't find no established tutorial using the system in ROS so far, is there a source i didnt find?
i already found the readme in the git-hub directory and the wiki.

so i am running roscore and roslaunched crazyflie_server.launch.
when trying adding a new crazyflie with roslaunching crazyflie_add.launch i get the error

Code: Select all

Could not find Crazyradio with given devId!

what am i doing wrong?

thanks for your help.

greetings,
Che.

Hi Che,

the only documentation is the readme on github (https://github.com/whoenig/crazyflie_ros). I'll try to keep it up-to-date and it does include some getting started information in the "crazyflie_demo" section.

I never saw the issue you mentioned myself, but I got one other report with the same error message. To narrow down what's going on, can you please provide the following additional information:
1. Which ROS version are you running?
2. Which Ubuntu version are you running?
3. Does the Bitcraze cfclient work without issues?
4. Did you set the udev permissions as described here: https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-c ... ermissions ?

Best,
Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

thanks for your help. The problem was indeed that I did not set the udev permissions right.

Greets,
