One Response to “AR Drone GPIO”

  1. I’m trying to write an alternative firmware for the AR Drone 2.0. So far I figured out a few of the gpio changes between the 1.0 drone by looking through the scripts found on the drone, but I’m still having a hard time finding some of the stuff I am looking for.

    Question: Can you share any insights into your process for reverse engineering the gpio numbers / semantcis?
