Hi guys,

My CrazyFlie is assembled but for some reason I can only get feedback from the device into the software (ie showing pitch etc) when it's plugged into the micro USB.

If I powered it on just using battery, it can connect and everything (and I can even reflash the firmware) but you can't see any 'feedback' from the device, and certainly can't cause the rotors to turn via controller (though that works when it is plugged in).

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hmm, that is really strange. Is the blue LED lit when running from battery?

What client version are you running? Sounds like the logging is crashing or something but that shouldn't happen because of running it from battery. Can you post the command line output here when connected to battery?

VERY strange.. after installing a bunch of windows updates on my laptop and rebooting it is actually all working fine

Edit: and I actually had the issue on two different PCs .. weird.

Thanks for your help.
