Thanks @robolink_arnold. I will give it try and let you know the outcome.

@robolink_arnold Thanks! It seems like the Arduino syntax is incorrect in the coDrone library listed here. Am I looking in the wrong spot or do I need to update my drone?

Here is the xml from my project if you would like to try. Thanks!

Hi @robolink_wes, I was able to try your suggestion plus a few other. Below are the affects when changing the speed of the yaw

• -20/20 - drone didn't yaw, only hovered

• -35/35, -45/45, & -75/57 same affect as using -50/50, just back and forth

Hi @robolink_wes, I will be able to test your suggestion tomorrow and will let you know. Thanks

Hi all,

I have been working through the lessons for the coDrone, but have come across some difficulties trying to have the drone fly in a square pattern as described here in Step #4.
I have copied the code verbatim, but the gyro seems to either be malfunctioning or the sample code needs adjustment.

Please see this video to get an idea of what is happening. Thoughts? I have tried to add some additional wait events thinking the drone needed more time to get a reading from the gyro before the next event, but no luck.

Thanks in advance for the help.

@robolink_wes I was able to connect and pair the drone as you suggested. I finally received the connection message. Thank you!

@robolink_wes are these Arduino commands correct?

I am using Arduino 1.8.5 and CoDrone library 1.5.1

When I wrote the following

#include <CoDrone.h>

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  CoDrone.begin(115200);
  CoDrone.AutoConnect(NearbyDrone);

  CoDrone.takeoff();
  CoDrone.hover(5);
  CoDrone.land();
}

For instance, I get the following error

Arduino: 1.8.5 (Mac OS X), Board: "Rokit-SmartInventor-mega32_v2"

/Users/vette99/Documents/Arduino/first_drone_program/first_drone_program.ino: In function 'void setup()':
first_drone_program:8: error: 'class CoDroneClass' has no member named 'takeoff'
   CoDrone.takeoff();
           ^
exit status 1
'class CoDroneClass' has no member named 'takeoff'

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

Sorry, this is my first time using Arduino and I have lots of questions. Thanks for your time!

Thanks for the quick reply @robolink_wes. I did what you said however it still didn't fully work. After opening Snap! it was able to detect the drone, but I still could not pair (see attached images)

Hello, I am having a similar issue. I purchased a coDrone pro and want to run Snap to allow my kids to program. However, when I attempt to connect the bluetooth board to the computer and start Snap I can neither get the drone to pair or update the drone. If I unhook the bluetooth device from the computer and just turn on the remote, both the drone and remote will pair.

I have tried this on my Mac and a Windows laptop without success. Suggestions?

I have also looked at this post, but still no success.
