Hi,

To flash with Crazyradio you need to use the bootloader. You can launch it with "make cload" and then set your Crazyflie in bootloader mode by pressing the on/off switch until the LED flashes.

I think you are talking about how to flash STM32 but I need to flash the NRF not the STM32

The NRF has the cload make target but unfortunately it is not configured by default in eclipse. You can add it by clicking the button add target with the name "cload BLE=0".

Otherwise go in the console and:

Code: Select all

bitcraze@bitcraze-vm:~$ cd projects/crazyflie2-nrf-firmware/
bitcraze@bitcraze-vm:~/projects/crazyflie2-nrf-firmware$ make cload BLE=0

As a side note if you want to compile with bluetooth support you can launch from the console:

Code: Select all

bitcraze@bitcraze-vm:~/projects/crazyflie2-nrf-firmware$ sudo apt-get install curl
bitcraze@bitcraze-vm:~/projects/crazyflie2-nrf-firmware$ tools/build/download_deps

You can then remote the BLE=0 from the make targets.
