Well, in theory the CF could be controlled from a computer if it supports Bluetooth LE, given that the software supports it. So far, the current CF client only supports the Crazyradio though.

Maybe this helps? It's just a guess though, I didn't really try to understand the code. diff --git a/lib/cfclient/utils/joystick/linuxjsdev.py b/lib/cfclient/utils/joystick/linuxjsdev.py index 20eed5e..e7a09e8 100644 --- a/lib/cfclient/utils/joystick/linuxjsdev.py +++ b/lib/cfclient/utils/joystick/l...

Wow, that's cool!

Shouldn't `cfclient.utils.joystick` be added to the setup.py `packages` argument to fix the error reported above?

lxrocks: You can see the battery voltage in cfclient. The battery is full at 4.2V and empty at 3V.

Additionally, if you have the Neopixel LED ring, you can try this version of the firmware: https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-firmware/pull/29 It visualizes the battery charge as color.

Happened to me too when installing via setup.py. I think there's a package definition missing in there, as it works when starting locally from source.

Thanks for the information

Yay, that's great Thanks.

Nexus 10 seems to work with both CrazyRadio and Bluetooth, although there may be some lag when using it with Bluetooth. I'll have to test that again.

I wanted to add it to the wiki, but apparently registration is disabled?

Is the battery charging handled in the regular firmware or in a separate circuit? Or in other words, if someone messes up the firmware, is it possible to overcharge (=explosion) or deplete (=dead battery) the LiPo battery? If I use a stronger USB power supply (2A), does the Crazyflie limit the curre...
