PS-Drone

Hello Gregorio, I'm very pleased that you used my little project and found the admittedly not very visible Python3 version of PS-Drone. The problem you describe is usually due to a faulty installation of OpenCV. OpenCV is a little bitchy about this, in most cases the problem is solved after reinstalling OpenCV. If you want to make sure that PS-Drone is not the source of the error, I recommend you to grab the video stream via saveVideo(), as the preprocessing of the video stream is skipped here -...

Hi Parwin, this error is related to an elementary and very well tested part of PS-Drone, so I rather guess an external reason than a program error. Have you ever run PS-Drone directly on the console ? Feel free to contact me directly if the error still occur. Best wishes, Phil

Hello Wally, this is a known problem of the drone. Ruffly, sensors are not very accurate in the small values - of course there are differences in quality. Depending on the technology used, this has different effects, especially with the Z-dimension attitude and magnetic sensors. The error magnitude vary between individual drones and actual temperature. That this "rotation" corresponds to an ellipse I also did not know yet, thanks for sharing. Up to firmware version 2.3.3 the measured values simply...

Hi Wally, the programs are still not very clear and only give them out on request at the moment. You'll have them in a few minutes ;-) Best wishes, Phil

Hi Zachary, that's odd, this problem should have been solved with last week's update. Are you using the latest version? Best wishes, Phil

We have worked on the problem away from the forum. It turned out that Loke's project was very ambitious and impressive, so I decided not to summarise this complex issue in this forum. Just so you know, he got it done and I am very impressed.

We have worked on the problem away from the forum. The latest uploaded version contains a fix with which video should work.
