Crazyswarm- No sensor data from Crazyflies about crazyswarm HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi Robert, it's expected that the Crazyswarm firmware will not work with the Bitcraze client. The Crazyswarm firmware basically will refuse to do anything until it starts getting pose data from the motion capture system.

It's easier to flash firmware by using the make cload command. Then you don't need to make the .zip

By the way, there is no intentional reason why manual mode doesn't work. It's just that we are focused on the mocap+autonomous case, so we neglected manual mode as we were adding the necessary safety checks and other features to support our needs. It's totally possible to add some runtime mode switch to allow both.

Hi James,
Many thanks for your reply and clarification about the Bitcraze client.
Also, I have been testing the Crazyswarm firmware with a single Crazyflie and when I run the hover_swarm.launch file I was able to get the /pointCloud data but also many warning lines, like below:

[WARN] [1504221811.727503164]: Dynamic check failed
wyaw: 13.6166 >= 10

[WARN] [1504221811.727549794]: No updated for CF cf1 for 0.003114s.
[WARN] [1504221811.865071562]: VICON Latency high: 0.0371055 s.

Latency: Data Synchronized: 0.00044014 s.
Latency: Data Processed: 0.0225299 s.
Latency: Data Delivered To DataStream: 0.000358925 s.
Could you please provide some feedback to fix this issue?
I think I have a communication between my ViconPC and LinuxPC (pinged for test). On the hover_swarm.launch, for the "vicon_host_name" used "Vicon_pc_IP:801" and for the "object_tracking_type" used "libobjecttracker". My understanding is that "vicon_host_name" is used by ViconDataStreamSDK libraries (Client.h) and I don't need a vicon_bridge involve. Could please confirm or clarify this point?

I am using just one Crazyflie and place at [1.5, 1.5, 0] and used, inside the hover_swarm.launch, an "offset": [-1.5, -1.5, 0.0]. For the markers location, I used the global coordinate values, like below:
numMarkerConfigurations: 1
markerConfigurations:
"0":
numPoints: 4
offset: [-1.5, -1.5, 0.0]
points:
"0": [1.509525,1.50635,0.03175]
"1": [1.476595,1.521454,0.019075]
"2": [1.47885178,1.479728477,0.019075]
"3": [1.522235,1.479619,0.019075]
numDynamicsConfigurations: 1
For this part, I followed the recommendation from Wolfgang's post ,
#4

Could you please let me know if i am doing correctly this part ? The Dynamic check failed warning doesn't make sense for me since I aligned the CF with X-axis positive.
Many thanks for your help again.

Hi Robert, I believe your current progress is all related to #26, so I can close this issue, correct?
