PC client does not respond.

We have a crazyflie 2.0 and we develop it with VM.
When we connect the drone with our PC client using crazyradio PA, the flight data does not always update. It sometimes works fine but it freezes for most of time. We already updated the firmware of Crazyfile, Crazyradio and have the latest version of PC client. We use a mac pro with USB 3.0 port.
Here are the logs from terminal and I attach a screen shot of the client to this thread

Can you try to switch to a higher on-air radio data rate in the config. Try with 1Mbit first the 2Mbit. Also try a different channel if it doesn't help.

Thanks! Now I can connect to the PC client and I try to run ramp.py. However, ramp.py does not seem to work. Sometimes I get the following message from terminal and the program stops. The propellers do not spin at all.

Code: Select all

bitcraze@bitcraze-vm:~/projects/crazyflie-clients-python/examples$ python ramp.py
Scanning interfaces for Crazyflies...
Crazyflies found:
radio://0/28/250K
radio://0/48/250K
radio://0/77/250K
radio://0/80/250K
Connecting to radio://0/80/250K
Sometimes I get an exception:

Hi,

Does the motors ramp up? If not then try to update to the latest version of the client (pull it from GitHub). There's a change where we first have to send 0 to unlock the thrust in the Crazyflie, if you don't have this line the example will not work.

The message you are getting is an error when the program is finishing.

It seems that it is a hardware problem. After repairing the board, it works fine. Thanks!
