Experimental Flight
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
The easiest drone to fly with paparazzi is the **Bebop 2**, from Parrot. It is no longer produced but can still be found 2nd hand.
|
|
|
|
Using the Bebop 2 with Paparazzi
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Make sure to have a bebop with at least firmware v3.3.0. Update it from FreeFlight pro if needed.
|
|
|
|
- Start the Paparazzi Center (or Stop/remove all processes)
|
|
- Select the *bebop2* A/C and build it for the *ap* target
|
|
- Power up the Bebop
|
|
- Connect your laptop to the Bebop's wifi network
|
|
- Press the on/off button 4 times
|
|
- Press the "Upload" button and wait. The messages in the console should end with "DONE"
|
|
- Select the Flight UDP/Wifi session, then execute.
|
|
|
|
You should get the telemetry from the bebop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Making the changes permanent
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
In the current state, you have to do the process all over again every time you restart the Bebop. However, you can start Paparazzi by default with the following steps:
|
|
|
|
- Power up the Bebop
|
|
- Connect your laptop to the Bebop's wifi network
|
|
- Press the on/off button 4 times
|
|
- Open a terminal and go to ``paparazzi/sw/tools/parrot``
|
|
|
|
Launch ``./bebop.py status``. You should get the current status of the drone's configuration. If it does not work, you may need to add the ``--host`` argument with the drone's IP address like so: ``./bebop.py --host 192.168.1.15 status``.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The default IP address of the bebop is ``192.168.42.1``. In this case, you don't need the ``--host`` argument.
|
|
|
|
Install the autostart script with ``./bebop.py install_autostart``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Change network settings
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
You can change the network settings of the drone to make it connect to an existing WiFi network: ``./bebop.py configure_network mySSID managed dhcp``. You can replace ``dhcp`` by a fixed IP address to use static IP instead of getting the address from your external router DHCP in ``managed`` mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Calibration
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The default values may be good enough to be able to fly, but it is recommanded that you calibrate the drone before flying. Go to the :doc:`../tutorials/beginner/sensor_calibration` page to learn how to do that.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Connect a Joystick
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
This part is optionnal but it is recommended to connect a joystick to have an easy way to control your drone, if something unexpected should happen.
|
|
|
|
Learn how to connect a joystick to your laptop to control your drone on this page: :doc:`../tutorials/beginner/use_joystick`
