Hi
I recently bought the Crazflie 10 DOF. There should be a Barometer, but I can't see it on the Board.
For a Presentation on my school I would like show a picture where each sensors is and marked but i havent found explanations.
Is there something like this in the wiki?

Next: Is it correct? The Barometer is disabled in the default configuration?
Where can I activate it in the tool Crazyflie PC Client?

Thanks from Germany

I like this tiny Quadcopter :)

Hi Cornflake,

I added annotations to the component placement documents in the wiki:

@Crazyflie team:
Please have a look at the documents and check if everything is correct or if I missed something

AFAIK the barometer is not supported in the stock firmware, but in the new beta "hover mode" firmware:
https://bitbucket.org/bitcraze/crazyfli ... -beta1.bin
For the new hover mode you also need the new PC client:

https://bitbucket.org/bitcraze/crazyfli ... -beta1.exe (Windows)
