Band new to this. I inherited my CoDrone from a friend. The drone turns on when I put in the battery and the controller starts up when I turn it on but is there a way to sync or connect the drone to the controller. Nothing happens other than a high pitch whining sound when both are powered up but I don't have control of the drone. If there is an instruction PDF, please point me to it?

Thanks

I have found that when I land on throttle back using the default controller code, the yaw is also affected and so the Codrone also rotates left or right. I set yaw=0 instead of -1 and now can land with no rotation.

Is there any way to code so that if the left joy stick is a hard right or left, the drone rotates +/- 45 degrees respectively. I'd like a little latitude so if I have a range between - 40 to -50 degrees, rotate left 45 degrees and the opposite for rotate right. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Problem Solved. Don't know what happened but my cable went bad. Replaced with a new cable and the Ports was no longer grayed out and Com3 was active.

Can I cause a cable to go bad by the way I'm connecting. Either way, I'll make sure I take care to plug in cable to remote first and then to computer so can't short out cable, if that's even possible

I have a CoDrone and have been successfully uploading code. This morning, the Com3 port can't be found in Arduino and the port is now grayed out.

Version 1.8.3 with Windows 7 64 bit. Was working perfectly yesterday. Any ideas?

Thanks for anyone's assistance. Dip 1 is up and all lights on the controller are as expected. Blinking blue on dip switch card and red blinking on bluetooth card. I think that's right.

I'm a newbie and looking at all the training I can get. I do see all the other training available but these tutorials also look good.
I see this link:

by Robolink but the library file is not "CoDrone.h" as expected but "SmartDroneControl.h".

Can these still be used if I substitute "SmartDroneControl." for "CoDrone"?

thanks

Thanks. Got it going. It looks like the only way to turn it off while using the remote is to cover the front infrared sensor. I'm using the flight_Controller default example program.

I just uploaded the Controller_Flight program in Arduino. I am using it but how do I turn off the CoDrone. I can only see up and down and left and right. I see no way to turn off the drone. Sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm looking for a kill button on the remote.

Thanks
