CoDrone Lite USB Board Disconnecting
-
I am trying to pair my CoDrone Lite with the Bluetooth board. My computer will find the device through a USB port and ask to connect. Once I press OK, it will say "connecting the device..." and then will say "Board was disconnected from port COM3". I tried updating the firmware twice and updating my computer. Any ideas on what I could do or what could be cause the problem?

@jacksonpope2 I am not sure what you are referring to. The Rokit and CoDrone board are the same but the libraries are different. You can definitely program the board with both libraries but the Rokit library will not be able to program the drone.

Does coding with the RoKit from the RBCoDrone Folder work?

@jacksonpope2 To use CoDrone Lite, you will need to program it with either Blockly or Python. You are probably seeing that error because it's not receiving any commands so it disconnects automatically. Check out our coding lessons to get started with CoDrone!

I was just connecting the board through the usb cable. Then the Bluetooth board would connect with the drone because the drone’s green light would stay on without blinking. Then it would say the board was disconnected even though it was connected through the usb cable.

@jacksonpope2 If you are trying to program in Blockly, you do not need to connect the Bluetooth board to the computer. Doing so will cause the pairing to fail. If you are trying to pair with Python, try installing the driver found in this lesson. Hope this helps!
