Re: Improving Altitude Hold Mode
Here's my first stab at making a motor function that compensates for battery voltage. I used thrust measurement data from the wiki ( http://wiki.bitcraze.se/misc:investigations:thrust#thrust_measurement ) to find a function for converting volts to grams of thrust. I then used the voltage output to c...

Re: PC-free for Crazyflie 2.0
We will soon send them a pull request with support for the Crazyflie 2.0. Having a hackable transmitter opens up a lot of possibilities. That is very tempting, if only because it's cheaper. When do you anticipate sending them a pull request? Or are your modifications available somewhere in the mean...

Re: PC-free for Crazyflie 2.0
After some research, I am leaning towards buying a Spektrum DSMX transmitter (dx6i or dx7s) and putting one of their satellite receivers on my crazyflie. I can use the expansion header to connect it to the STM32 and then I'll have to add support in the firmware. I don't think it should be too diffic...

Improving Altitude Hold Mode
According to this page in the wiki: http://wiki.bitcraze.se/projects:crazyflie:firmware:altitude_hold , the integral (I) part of the altitude hold PID controller is used to compensate for decreasing motor voltage as the battery discharges, and it only resets when the battery is charging. This setup ...

Re: PC-free for Crazyflie 2.0
I'm up for some development, and I really want to fly my CF without a PC or phone to mess with. I'm just trying to figure out the best approach. Attach the Crazyradio PA to the expansion module/port of an RC transmitter. The would requires some firmware development in the Crazyradio to convert the R...

Re: I want to add a camera
I just ordered http://www.fpvhobby.com/143-sub-nano-combo-set.html and http://www.fpvhobby.com/32-4-ghz-receiver-module.html to try out on my CF2. A 1g camera and transmitter combo seems to be too good to be true, but I'm excited to try it out. I'll post an update when I receive it.

PC-free for Crazyflie 2.0
The original crazyflie could use an E-sky RC Transmitter to run without a pc as described in this blog post: http://www.bitcraze.se/2013/04/pc-free-crazyflie-controllers/ And a recent blog post ( http://www.bitcraze.se/2015/01/crazyflie-2-0-radio-communication/ ) states: For the original Crazyflie t...
