Hello,

A few days ago, I had the idea to start programming my own drone and I found out the Crazyflie. It seems really great and going through the work of some of you made me want even more to start programming myself the drone.

However, even after searching on the Internet, I cannot figure out what do I exactly need to start programming. The Crazyflie 2.0 is sometimes sold with a crazy radio and sometimes with a debugger adapter kit. Do I need to buy a crazy radio and a debugger kit or the crazy radio is enough to start developing ?

Sorry if all these questions have been already asked.

Regards,

Etienne

Hi Etienne,

It depends on what you want to program. If you want to modify the firmware of the Crazyflie (low level C programming)
and debug the different chipsets (STM32, NRF51) a debugger kit can certainly be handy, but it's not required.
If you want to program client applications that send/receive commands to/from the Crazyflie it's sufficient to buy a Crazyflie and a Crazyradio (PA).

Regards,

Fred

Thank your for your reply Fred. It's clear now.

Since I prefer developing in c#, I found this link :

https://github.com/search?l=C%23&nwo=bi ... positories

The only thing I'll have to do is using these libraries for the client side instead of the default ones, am I right?

Etienne

Yes, that's how it should work.

Thank you for your help.
