Inverted flight

Post by Mitteau »

Hello crazyflie fan people
I would investigate "reverse flight" for CF2 ?
Are there any test in this field?

It depends on what you mean, but as the current motor drivers for the CF2 can only turn the motor one way it is not possible to flip it around and fly inverted. However having it fly "inverser" always is possible with some code changes and flipping the propellers.

Hi
I want to change by putting thrust command in negative part (xbxox360).
For the propellers I could use symmetric profile...
But what about electrical power amplifier Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 ?
I think software can be easily adapted.

Inversing power "in flight" could be a challenge!

Best regards
