Re: Beginner with embedded development
A tip for any other beginners out there is that I've gotten "newbieIDE" for windows and have been going through the earlier mentioned book to learn the basics of C. I found Eclipse in the VM a bit daunting to be honest and newbieIDE is quite simple in comparison. I'm sure when I get some ...

Re: Beginner with embedded development
A sort of Mid term goal is to have the LEDs on the exp ring change from green to red progressively as the battery looses charge - a bit like a clock ! Hey. That battery charge indicator is actually a *really* great idea. I just did my first firmware hack and implemented that (although I used blue i...

Re: Crazyflie 2.0 turns off when motors start
Tobias, yes, I'll do that. But for the firmware upgrade first I'll have to get the current cfclient to work (see support issue regarding the segfaults)

Crazyflie 2.0 turns off when motors start
I can start my Crazyflie 2.0 just fine, the self test works. All LEDs light up as they should. But when adding thrust, the flie immediately turns off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSJgYeyAhiM Is this some kind of short-circuit? Or is that the issue that was addressed in the firmware update? The o...
