Codrone Pro won't recognize standard functions

[Ronan1]

Hello,

When I try to use standard codrone functions in Python it states the function is not defined. Any ideas please?

NameError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-6-c2cfc033e4c6> in <module>
6
7 drone.takeoff() # takeoff for 2 seconds
----> 8 drone.go(UP, 3, 75) # go up for 3 seconds at 75% power
9 drone.go(FORWARD) # go forward for 1 second at 50% power
10 drone.go(LEFT, 6) # go left for 6 seconds at 50% power

NameError: name 'UP' is not defined

Perfect thank you for the help! @robolink_leila

Hi, @Ronan1!
In Python, using the go() function is a little bit different than in Arduino. You will need to import the Direction class separately:

#Python code
import CoDrone
from CoDrone import Direction

def main(): 
    drone = CoDrone.CoDrone()
    drone.pair()
    drone.takeoff()

    drone.go(Direction.FORWARD)         # Go forward for 1 second at 50% power
    drone.go(Direction.UP, 5)           # Go up for 5 seconds at 50% power
    drone.go(Direction.BACKWARD, 3, 70) # Go backwards for 3 seconds at 70% power

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
