Hi ! this looks awesome! bu I can't get it to work. Can you please give further instructions ? executing 'node multiple.js' is not working...

How is this supposed to work without a REPL ?

sorry for the ignorance, any help appreciated.

Hi Joeri,

This library just provides the controls to send the commands to each drone. If you wanted to control it without a predefined script you could build a REPL on top of it, i've also hooked it up to a PS3 controller and read commands off that and turned them into fleet commands. I'll try and find the code for that but it's been a long time.

Were you able to get a single drone controlled using just Felix's ardrone library? Also i'm not sure if the current ardrone models support the same api commands.

Hi Adam,

Yes, I could not get your code working, I don’t know why, and indeed it was the entry point that I was confused about, I ended up making my own code, and just like you suggested, I ended up making my own REPL function :)

You can see it here: https://github.com/JoeriBultheel/ardoneswarm https://github.com/JoeriBultheel/ardoneswarm

It’s really really simple, and I don’t really understand why all that code is necessary in your project. Then again, I wil have to find a more flexible control solution than entering commands in the terminal :p

Thank you!!!

Joeri
