CoDrone Lite out of control

[rchan1030]

Hi,

We got problem in control the CoDrone Lite. We wrote a simple code as attached xml.

Take off -> pitch -> yaw -> pitch -> landing

However, it flied in different direction each time. !

You can check the video below,

Hope you could give us an advice to solve the issue. Thanks!

Great! Let me know if you have any issues. One more thing: a good example of a good surface would be a thin carpeted floor with some kind of pattern on it.

@robolink_wes Great! We will give it a try! Thanks!

Hi @rchan1030, welcome to the Robolink Community! The video you sent and the drone's behavior indeed don't seem to match. @arnold_robolink will be able to answer even better than me, but it looks like the issue may be the reflective and blank floor you have. Oftentimes, when the floor is too reflective and doesn't have enough pattern, the drone isn't able to fix its position as well.

One thing we'd recommend is making sure of find a surface that's more patterned and non-reflective. On that surface, try doing a calibration. You can do that calibration by following these steps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emX3NaZEEDM

Give that a try, and let us know if it improves the performance!
