I am a new QLC+ user experimenting with controlling small quadcopter drones using DMX512 and QLC+. I am not creating 1000 drone light shows but small indoor shows with a hand full of drones. Anyone try this before?
The drone is a DJI Ryze Tello drone which is a low cost drone (~$100) frequently used in schools for STEM/STEAM programs. The drone has a simple command/response interface using UDP packets. This part is well supported by various Python modules.
The simple drone commands take no parameters: Takeoff, Land, Flip Forward, Flip Back, Flip Right, Flip Left. Others commands take 1 parameter: Move Forward x centimeters, Move back x centimeters, etc.
Attached is my first cut at using QLC+ to control drones. Comments are welcome.
