@ggale12 Unfortunately, some of our customers with that particular OLED have issues so we are replacing them. We will contact you via the email associated with your forum account to get a replacement. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

@ggale12 This looks like a malfunctioning screen, but just to be sure, can you take the shell off and take a picture of the OLED screen? We are looking for some numbers printed on the bottom right of the screen. Please attach your picture to this thread. Thanks!

Attention CoDrone Mini Pilots! There is a new library update out for CoDrone Mini. You can now get sensor data and use it in your program! We're still working on getting some new content, but you can start exploring by checking out the documentation and updating your library.

v0.14 Documentation

Video: How to Update CDM Library

Don't forget to share what projects you make!

@azza This has been updated on our side but unfortunately the lesson is still under review to be released. In the meantime, you can follow the instructions here on the Google Doc. Make sure you download the Rokit library again following the instructions in the document, and make sure to delete the old files!

@zldzksk1
Please verify the following:

• A valid port has been selected (If on Windows, it cannot be COM1) under Tools>Port
• The Rokit SmartInventor Board V2 is selected under Tools>Board
• You are using the USB cable that came with the kit (or any other data USB that is not charge-only)
• Dip switch 1 is up while switches 2 and 3 are down (This is upload mode)

If you have any questions about what these mean let me know!

@zldzksk1
If your CoDrone is not pairing with your controller, you will need to upload the code in lesson 2J: Flight Controller with Analog Read. If the code is not uploading properly, make sure the board is in upload mode. If you need help uploading refer to lesson 1F: Uploading Programs to the Remote. All of the lessons can be found here. If you have issues uploading the code, please reply with your operating system, version, and a screenshot of any errors. Thank you!

@azza ,
Chromium is not a stable browser so we recommend using Google Chrome for programming in Blockly for both CoDrone and CoDrone Mini. Chromium had trouble pairing to CoDrone so please use Google Chrome! Chromebooks, Mac, and Windows are all welcome for Block coding as long as you have a USB port on your device. Thanks for your question!

@alancox I can check again but as far as I know installing the driver was usually necessary to detect the board. You can try using Codebender here if you would like.

Here is the information from that old lesson:

On the bottom of that same workspace, you're going to see two drop-down menus: one is for your board, and the other is for your port.

For your board, select Rokit-SmartInventor-mega32_v2.

For your port, there may only be one option, depending on how many things are plugged into your computer at once! If you run your code and get a message saying your device is unresponsive, change your port and that should help.

Hi @blakewareing ,
Are you by any chance using Snap! to program instead of Blockly, our new block coding platform? It should help resolve some of your issues and you can find all of our lessons here.

If you are using Blockly, could you provide your laptop specs (operating system, version, brand)?

For more specific protocol information you can check the technical documentation from the manufacturer: http://dev.byrobot.co.kr/documents/en/products/petrone/protocol/

CoDrone uses an Arduino based controller running on 5V that communicates with the drone using 2.4GHz Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) with a range of about 20 meters. The drone operates with a single cell Lithium-Ion Polymer battery (3.7V and 300mAh).
