The Bebop from Parrot is an Wifi controlled flying quadrotor and is designed to be controlled with Android and iOS devices.
Features
Connectivity

- Video stabilization: Digital on 3-axes
- Video definition: 1920x1080p (30fps)
- Photo definition: 3800x3188 pixels
- Video encoding: H264
- Photo file format: RAW, DNG
- Internal memory: Flash 8 GB
- Extended memory: Micro USB
Battery
- Lithium Polymer 1200 mAh
- Flight time: Around 12 minutes
Processor
- Motherboard:
- Parrot P7 dual-core CPU Cortex 9
- Quad core GPU
- 8Gb flash memory
- All fixed on a magnesium shelf that acts as electromagnetic shielding and as a radiator
- Operating system: Linux
- Developping: Open-source SDK
Sensors
- 3-axes magnetometer (AKM 8963)
- 3-axes gyroscope (MPU 6050)
- 3-axes accelerometer (MPU 6050)
- Optical-flow sensor (Fig.8): Vertical stabilization camera (Every 16 milliseconds, an image of the ground is taken and compared to the previous one to determine the speed of the Bebop Drone)
- Ultrasound sensor (Analyzes the flight altitude up to 8 meters)
- Pressure sensor (MS 5607)
Geo-location
- GNSS (GPS + GLONASS + Galileo, Furuno GN-87F)
Dimensions
- 28x32x3.6cm without the hull
- 33x38x3.6cm with the hull
Weight
- 380g without the hull
- 400g with the hull
Pinout
GPIO
- 73 P7MU IRQ
- 81 GPS Power Enable
- 85 Fan enable
- 90 Vsync horizontal camera
- 91 DRDY MPU6050
- 201 On/Off button (default monitor to files running: /bin/onoffbutton)

PWM
- 6 Heating resistor for warming IMU sensors (125000ns period, 0ns duty)
- 8 MPU6050 clock (31510ns period, 15258ns duty) Desired frequency is 32768kHz with 50% duty cycle (period=30517us). Period was set empirically to 31517 to get a 5ms data ready period. Desired frequency is slightly modified to synchronize camera and IMU
- 9 Vertical camera clock (23ns period = 43MHz)

I2C
- I2C-0
- I2C-1
- Cypress Motor Controller (Parrot BLDC) Bebop/BLDC
- AKM8963 Magnetometer AK8963
- MS5607 Barometer MS5607
- I2C-2
- MPU6050 Gyro + Accel MPU6050
UART
- ttyPA1 GPS (Furuno GN-87F)
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
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.
