Parrot Bebop

Intro

Originally the Bebop from Parrot is a Wifi controlled flying quadrotor, designed to be controlled with an Android or iOS device. Not any more: With a few simple clicks you can run Paparazzi on the Bebop and have full autonomous flight and much more!

Getting started

  1. Make sure you have the latest release version of Paparazzi installed.
  2. Power up your Bebop.
  3. Make a Wifi connection with your PC and the Bebop
  4. In the Paparazzi center choose "Bebop" in the airframe dropdown menu
  5. Press "Upload"
  6. Select the Bebop or ARdrone2 Flight in the session menu
  7. Press execute

Voila, you will get telemetry from the Bebop. Now it is up to you how and where to fly.

  • Pressure sensor (MS 5607)

Geo-location

Dimensions

  • 28x32x3.6cm without the hull

Actuators

The Bebop has 4 Brushless motors, which are controlled by the cypress chip on I2C-1. This Cypress chip contains costum made firmware(BLDC) from Parrot, which can be automatically updated using a bootloader. The firmware from Parrot contains a very nice closed loop RPM control, which is automatically tuned inside the factory.

For more information about how to communicate with the BLDC look at Bebop/BLDC. Or take a look at the "bebop" actuator inside the airborne/boards/bebop/ folder.

Programs

  • /usr/bin/dragon-prog Main program that controls the drone
  • /bin/watchdog.sh Checks if Dragon is still running and reboots dragon
  • BLDC_Test_Bench Controls the Brushless Motor Controllers for testing and playing sounds etc.
  • bcmwl Everything with wifi
  • diagnostic Outputs sensor diagnostic
  • mk3_camera_eeprom Reads the front camera EEPROM
  • config_mt9v117 Configure the bottom camera

Cross compiler

For the Bebop you need to use a recent version GNU gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.4-2ubuntu1) 4.7.4 provided with Ubuntu since 14.04 LTS.

If it doesn't work with your GCC/Linaro version, you can also try the Sourcery CodeBench Lite 2012.03-57 for ARM GNU/Linux from Mentor Graphics (previously codesourcery). This cross compiler is available here: Sourcery CodeBench Lite 2012.03-57 for ARM GNU/Linux. Please install this crosscompiler in the /usr/local/codesourcery/ directory of your computer, to make sure paparazzi is able to find the cross compiler.

Video

Load the video_rtp_stream.xml module. Receive the video stream with e.g. avplay:

$ avplay -loglevel quiet -max_delay 50 -fflags nobuffer rtp://192.168.42.1:5000
