Connecting to Crazyflie while charging bricked Crazyflie

Hi there, I seem to have bricked my Crazyflie, although I can't figure out why. I'd just flown my Crazyflie until the battery was down, as I've done quite a few times since I got it. No major crashes or anything occured. When the red LED was lit continuously, I stopped flying and plugged it in, and ...

Re: Logging accelerometer values

Okay, thanks, I'll get on it next week :) Never worked on firmware before, this'll get interesting ;)

I take it that I need to recompile and reflash the firmware once I've added those variables, right?

Re: Logging accelerometer values

Okay, thanks for the tips :) I'll be looking forward for the logging framework :) I think plotting's great, but what's really important to me is getting the numbers. Have a nice weekend!

[SOLVED] Logging accelerometer values

Hi all, My Crazyflie arrived and I've flashed the newest firmware - worked like a charm :) I'm looking forward to soldering everything together on the weekend. I have a question about the Crazyflie Client. I notice that it prints out pitch, roll, yaw, and I'll bet that it's pretty easy to log that s...

Re: Receiving FPV data on PC

Okay, that's good to know. I've ordered the kit that Tobias suggested and will try it out and let you all know how it went! :)

Receiving FPV data on PC

Hi there, Once my drone arrives I'm hoping to use it for FPV flight, like Bitcraze did here: http://www.bitcraze.se/2013/03/first-fpv-flight-test/ I'm wanting to receive video and process it directly on a computer running Linux. I've got a couple of questions about that: 1. I like the camera that wa...

Re: High level automatic piloting project

Hi there, Some of those posts are indeed new to me, the one from last month sounded pretty promising though to us. Our entire set of goals with the library is hard to describe, because we've got a very broad range of goals. The principle, of course, is to do everything as modularly as possible. The ...

Re: High level automatic piloting project

Hi there, Wow, thanks for the replies! :) I think I need to update the project description on Github a bit so that it's a little bit more understandable. The aim of the project is to write a library that allows drones to be controlled either from a ground control station, such as a laptop, or from t...

High level automatic piloting project

Hi all, A few friends and I have started a project to write high level automatic flight software for drones. We're using Crazyflie as a test platform, but the software is designed to be non-hardware specific. It will be using OpenCV as its main real-world interface, both for positioning, object reco...
