(Reentered issue from user laurent d)

Can i suggest you this modified user_config.h basic setting comments.
I added informations about them and i corrected two of them :
YAW_RATE  should may be start at 1 since the recommended values in the PARROT 
Developer Guide SDK 1.6 are 0.7 up to 6.11
THROTTLE_RATE should be 200 up to 2000 (and not 0 up to 20000) ;)

Regards.

                                    // to prevent the drone from flying above this 
                                    // limit, or set it to 10000 to let the drone 
                                    // fly as high as desired

You don't mention video in your mod.  Does the video still work on the 
ipad/iphone?

Thanks for your great work.

I like the simplicity. My AR Drone is new and running 1.7.  Do I need to down 
grade of stick with 1.7.

Got the Firmware 1.3.3 installed. (Iphone confirms the Firmware version).

Downloaded Ardu.DroneRC_v0.2.1 files from nossari's ardudrone Howto, and 
installed them on the drone using FileZila and Binary transfer.

[ATTACH]3871039[/ATTACH]

Opened Terminal (using a Mac) and Telnet 192.168.1.1 as descriped.

Got confirmation:
BusyBox v1.14.0 (2010-09-22 15:20:11 CEST) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

But then at point 3.1.3 things start to go wrong.
Typing in the 3 commands I get following responds:

# cd /data/video/ardudrone
/bin/sh: cd: can't cd to /data/video/ardudrone

# chmod 755 ardudrone_setup.sh
chmod: ardudrone_setup.sh: No such file or directory

# chmod 755 atcomproxy_arm
chmod: atcomproxy_arm: No such file or directory

What is going wrong?

First off, let me say that I have not modified my drone at all YET?  I'm very 
interested in performing the mod that you have listed.  However, the way that I 
found this information was an attempt to fix my drone.  I attempted to load the 
latest firm ware and when my iphone told me to reset the drone I did and now 
the only thing that happens is the red light lights up, 4 motors and on the 
belly.  There is no WIFI present to log into or anything.  I have found the 
schematic for the USB cord and read through your posts on here and fell that 
you may be able to help me unlock my drone.  Are you able to help me out?  I am 
an electrician in the Marine Corps on several types of Helicopters, so I 
understand soldering and have a little programming experience.  I have reviewed 
your instructions here and feel that I'm capable of the task, but want to get 
my drone up and running first.  Please feel free to email me at 
[email protected] if you are able to help me out, Thank you very much.

Hi, 

I really appreciate your work, it's a very good alternative to the poor wifi 
range.

Just tell me if there's a way to make the setup easier for old guys, RC pilots, 
who's solder some wires don't afraid, but programming via telnet, is another 
thing...

I don't wanna commercialize your work, just the package to made the mod.

You gave the links to buy the cards, but there's possibility to have bulkrate 
prices ;)

Let me know if you wanna have french programmers contacts of our community 
http://droneparrot.com/forumv2

I'm looking forward for your reply, and sorry for the image and the first 
misunderstanding it gives.

Cordially

Hi,

May i get in contact with you?

Thanks

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. plug board into usb port
2. power up drone
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? expect to see board power 
up. No power to board 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ardu.Drone RC V0.2.1, Drone 1.3.3

Please provide any additional information below.
If I wait for the drone to boot (green LED's) then plug in the board to the USB 
port, the board gets power, but still the drone does not respond to the takeoff 
command. Also, after this I get many motor failure notifications.
I have built a new cable, rechecked all file transfers and drone file 
modifications.

Thanks.
