Classes

Commander

Commander(crazyflie=None)

Used for sending control setpoints to the Crazyflie

Initialize the commander object. By default the commander is in +-mode (not x-mode).


Methods

def send_hover_setpoint(self, vx, vy, yawrate, zdistance)

Control mode where the height is send as an absolute setpoint (intended to be the distance to the surface under the Crazflie), while giving x, y velocity commands in body-fixed coordinates.

vx, vy are in m/s yawrate is in degrees/s zdistance is in meters


def send_position_setpoint(self, x, y, z, yaw)

Control mode where the position is sent as absolute (world) x,y,z coordinate in meter and the yaw is the absolute orientation.

x, y, z are in m yaw is in degrees


def send_setpoint(self, roll, pitch, yawrate, thrust)

Send a new control setpoint for roll/pitch/yaw_Rate/thrust to the copter.

The meaning of these values is depended on the mode of the RPYT commander in the firmware Default settings are Roll, pitch, yawrate and thrust

roll, pitch are in degrees yawrate is in degrees/s thrust is an integer value ranging from 10001 (next to no power) to 60000 (full power)


def send_stop_setpoint(self)

Send STOP setpoing, stopping the motors and (potentially) falling.


def send_velocity_world_setpoint(self, vx, vy, vz, yawrate)

Send Velocity in the world frame of reference setpoint with yawrate commands

vx, vy, vz are in m/s yawrate is in degrees/s


def send_zdistance_setpoint(self, roll, pitch, yawrate, zdistance)

Control mode where the height is send as an absolute setpoint (intended to be the distance to the surface under the Crazflie), while giving roll, pitch and yaw rate commands

roll, pitch are in degrees yawrate is in degrees/s zdistance is in meters


def set_client_xmode(self, enabled)

Enable/disable the client side X-mode. When enabled this recalculates the setpoints before sending them to the Crazyflie.
