flone-android
A CleanFlight drone remote controller, driven with performance in mind.
Current features
- Autoreconnection: if connection drops, app will try to connect again to the drone automatically
- Automagic heading: the drone will mimic your orientation automatically
- Connects with the drone via Bluetooth
- The communication is handled in a Service, so the drone wouldn't fall if someone calls you
- Choose if you are a beginner or an expert pilot, to cap the pitch/roll values
- Put the drone in BARO/SONAR mode when untapping the phone screen
- It works with all CleanFlight powered boards, not only the Flone
Next releases features
- Connection via WiFi Direct
- Connection via Internet (using a phone to drive the drone, and another one on the drone to connect the drone to the Internet)
- Get the altitude of the drone above the ground
- Get the GPS location of the multiwii board
- Get the GPS location of the phone, when connecting over the Internet (for boards without GPS)
- Do you have an idea? Create an issue!
