-With the [[https://www.bitcraze.io/led-ring-deck/|LED deck]] and a Crazyflie 2.x, we are able to make real pieces of art, like in the light paintings in this [[https://www.bitcraze.io/2019/03/lighthouse-painting/|blog post]] or even the [[https://www.bitcraze.io/2019/03/drawing-images-with-crazyflie-and-bitcraze-at-icra-2019/| Mona lisa]].

 __How about using the LED-deck in the combination with the [[https://www.bitcraze.io/flow-deck-v2/|Flow deck v2]]?__ A while ago we managed to do this by drilling a couple of holes in the LED deck in this [[https://www.hackster.io/krichardsson/light-paint-with-a-drone-d050af|hackster project]]. However, if you are fine with putting the LED deck on the top, there might be an easier way to achieve this combination. __How about using the LED-deck in the combination with the [[https://www.bitcraze.io/flow-deck-v2/|Flow deck v2]]?__ A while ago we managed to do this by drilling a couple of holes in the LED deck in this [[https://www.hackster.io/krichardsson/light-paint-with-a-drone-d050af|hackster project]].

 What we are essentially doing, is that we are flipping the pin-layout of the LED deck so that it is compatible to be put on the top of the Crazyflie. What we are essentially doing, is that we are flipping the pin-layout of the LED deck so that it is compatible to be put on the top of the Crazyflie.
