How well does altitude hold mode work?

Post by glnnnn »

I'm creating an autopilot for the crazyflie 2.0 and I would like to use the altitude hold feature. So after lift off and when in the air for a couple of seconds I call

Code: Select all

cf.param.set_value('flightmode.althold', 'True');
to enable the altitude hold and I also set the thrust to 32767 which means no vertical movement. Nevertheless the crazyflie 2.0 consistently rises and crashes into the ceiling

Any ideas?

It is a closed room, no open windows or such..

Greets :)

Does it work with the python client GUI and do you get pressure measurement in the client?

What you are doing looks good, and closing the windows is a good idea :-).
