This repository contains examples that can be run on the GAP8 as well as some supporting documentation for developing for the GAP8. The examples are a good starting point for creating your own applications.
The examples use one of two firmware combinations on the AI-deck:
- The NanoCockpit examples use the ESP32 firmware for NanoCockpit, and are flashed to the GAP8 with a JTAG programmer.
- The other examples use the original ESP32 firmware and the GAP8 bootloader, and can be flashed to the GAP8 over the air.
We recommend NanoCockpit. The other examples need the original firmware, which is only needed to flash the GAP8 over the air without a JTAG programmer, or to send CPX packets between the GAP8 and the Crazyflie.
See switching firmware for how to go from one to the other.
Newer Crazyflie release packages include the ESP32 firmware for NanoCockpit. Upgrading the Crazyflie with such a release therefore replaces the original ESP32 firmware, see switching firmware.
