Re: two expansion boards at the same time, is it possible?

it's such a bummer they are mutually exclusive!

I was looking forward to making an autonomous self charging nano quad with some eye candy :(

two expansion boards at the same time, is it possible?

I think I've read somewhere this is indeed possible.

I have the Qi charging board and the LED ring board, but they don't seem to work together; looks like it's either one or the other.

Can someone confirm?

Thanks

Re: Crazyflie 2 doesn't hover?

ok, I was among those disappointed by never being able to control / hover the CF with the iPhone app: coming here to reassure it is definitely a problem on the app. Got my CrazyRadio, then plugged my Xbox one controller (using a Mac with xbox one controller enabler), and there is an enormous differe...

Re: CF2.0 Led ring expansion: how to program?

Yep I have a vast iOS dev experience so I will investigate how I can make the iOS client interact with the leds. I have yet to find a way to do some stable flying first - I had this for a couple weeks only and it's almost impossible with the iphone app. I'm hoping the crazy radio will solve this iss...

CF2.0 Led ring expansion: how to program?

I just received some spare parts and the neopixel led ring for my CF 2.0 It turns on fine, it works, but with latest firmware it is plain white light without any effect. I tried using the client for OSX, but it only works with the Crazyradio (which should be arriving soon, too). It doesn't support B...

Re: Crazyflie 2 doesn't hover?

@CliffH & @utp It is relieving to hear that problems were indeed on the iPhone app and not the CF 2.0 board! I should have tried my xbox one controller before destroying so many motor mounts.. @tobias I have indeed purchased the CF 2.0 for its modifiable nature and development capabilities - I'm...

Re: Crazyflie 2 doesn't hover?

Are you flying with the firmware as it came from the factory or have you updated it using the links provided in this blog post under the "Firmware update" section . If you don't have new firmware, updating it might solve your problems... Well, that and a new 5 pack of motor mounts. :( yes...

Re: Crazyflie 2 doesn't hover?

Another rather disappointed customer here... I spent quite some time balancing my propellers (turns out most of them weren't balanced) and I was getting a pretty decent balance with the needle method after shaking it a bit as explained in their tutorials. But no matter what, I was never able to make...
