I am trying to make a quadcopter that receives commands from my android mobile phone. I currently have the following:

  1. Raspberry Pi 3 Model B running on Raspbian.

  2. Pi Camera

  3. Seriously Pro F3 Flight Controller

I am planning on using bluetooth to send commands to my raspberry pi, but I am unable to figure out how to send commands from the raspberry pi to the flight controller. I am thus asking, how do I send commands (those of movement and throttle) from my raspberry pi to the flight controller.

Link to Flight Controller Documentation: http://seriouslypro.com/files/SPRacingF3-Manual-latest.pdf

This is the project I am trying to make: http://www.instructables.com/id/The-Drone-Pi/

This project is made with a MultiWii flight controller, while I want to make it with a SPF3 Flight Controller, I don't know how to approach accomplishing it.

I'm asking a similar question: Quadcopter controlled by Raspberry Pi

but with a SPF3 Flight controller rather than CC3D Flight Controller and with a little more explanation of terms.

  • Welcome to Robotics Mohit Garg, but I'm afraid that it is not clear what you are asking. We prefer practical, answerable questions based on actual problems that you face, so it's a good idea to include details of what you want to achieve, what you tried, what you saw & what you expected to see. Please take a look at [ask] & [about] for more information on how stack exchange works and work through the Robotics question checklist to edit your question to make it clearer. – Mark Booth Feb 09 '18 at 11:09
  • Is it clearer now? – Mohit Garg Feb 09 '18 at 11:53

    I'm sorry @Mohit Garg but we still don't have enough information about what your problem is. Please explain what you have already tried and describe what happened when you tried it. – Mark Booth Feb 09 '18 at 15:21
  • Also please put a link to the documentation of the flight controller. – NomadMaker Feb 11 '18 at 23:07
  • How about now @MarkBooth – Mohit Garg Feb 12 '18 at 12:50
  • Thanks @MohitGarg your edit does make your question better, but it still doesn't isn't clear what your question is. Al the moment it looks like you are asking a rather broad question about what to do next rather than asking how to solve a specific problem. It would also be good to say what happened when you connected the SP F3 and the Raspberry Pi with a USB cable, installed the Silicon Labs CP210 drivers and tried to run the Cleanflight Configurator tool, as the instructions suggest. – Mark Booth Feb 12 '18 at 15:14
  • @MarkBooth I am asking what to do next since I don't understand most of the documentation as I am new to quadcopters and flight. – Mohit Garg Feb 13 '18 at 15:07
  • I added link to a similar question in the question – Mohit Garg Feb 13 '18 at 15:18
  • Thanks for adding the link to the other question. Since the answer to that question also answers this question, I will close this as a duplicate. – Mark Booth Feb 13 '18 at 17:45
  • The other question answers this with a CC3D controller, while I am looking for an answer with a Seriously Pro F3 Controller. – Mohit Garg Feb 14 '18 at 14:49
