- | {{ : | ||
- | The ESKY ET6I Remote Control is compatible to the Crazyflie as they share the same radio chipset. In order to use the RC **instead of** the Crazyflie PC Client, you'll have to compile the firmware with '' | ||
- | |||
- | < | ||
- | cd ~/ | ||
- | make clean && make USE_ESKYLINK=1 CLOAD=1 all | ||
- | </ | ||
- | |||
- | This will create a new firmware file '' | ||
- | |||
- | You'll have to make some adjustments on your RC in order for this to work. First, take a look into the battery compartment of your RC. There you'll see two switches. Make sure switch 1 is set to '' | ||
- | |||
- | {{: | ||
- | |||
- | Then close the battery compartment again and take a look at the lower right front of your RC. There are four switches, one each for AILeron, ELEvator, THRottle and RUDder. You'll have to adjust these, depending on your RC's Mode. If you have a Mode 1 RC (throttle and rudder on the right stick) the correct setting is AIL-up, ELE-down, THR-up, RUD-down. If on the other hand you have a Mode 2 RC (throttle + rudder on the left stick) you'll need to set those switches to AIL-down, ELE-up, THR-down, RUD-up. | ||

- | |||
- | With this done and your Crazyflie reflashed with the ESKY-enabled firmware, startup your Crazyflie, then after the steady heartbeat from the red led indicates that it's done, make sure your throttle stick is all the way down and then switch on your RC. Crazyflie and RC should now bind and your Crazyflie should react to your RC's input. | ||
- | |||
- | :!: **Careful** :!: When your Crazyflie is flashed in ESKY mode, be careful to not switch on the RC when your Crazyflie is connected to the USB cable for charging. It will bind to the RC and it will react to any (accidental) RC commands you give it, including trying to fly away with the USB cable still attached. | ||
