Hi,

This is Kathir. Currently working on a school project. Right now I am controlling the drone based on time with PSDRONE.
Let's say,
drone.moveUp()
time.sleep(1) # drone moves up for 1 second in my understanding.

Is there anything I can do to control it with distance? Let's say I would like the drone to moveForward for 4 feet or 3 feet ?

Regards,
Kathir

Hi Kathir,

well, this task is not so easy, because the drone has no references to orientate. Anyway, we discussed this a couple of days ago here:

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Best wishes,
Philipp
