If at any point you need to calibrate your CoDrone, watch the video and follow the steps carefully! Also make sure that you are in a flat, spacious, and well-lit area as the CoDrone may not calibrate correctly otherwise. These conditions are important to eliminate drifting with your CoDrone. The following two sensors play an important role:
- One is the optical flow camera that measures the movement of patterns on the floor. If the room is not well- lit, the CoDrone will not be able to distinguish the patterns on the floor and will see only black.
- The other is a distance/range finder which measures the distance to the floor. If something is below the CoDrone, it will adjust its height so it can maintain its constant distance.
