Another Desktop App

[SMerrony]

This one I'm using as a test-bed for enhancements to the Gobot Tello platform...

tello-desktop on Github

It's not pretty, but it works for me!

It has live video and flight controller support at the moment.

Added a flight status window and support for Dualshock 4 controller.

Cool! But I really want a keyboard support!

That should be easy to add - I'll get on to it!

Hi,

thanks for uploading your app. I'd like to try it but get this errors. Whats wrong?

Have a look at the README - it explains that you currently need the DEV version of Gobot.

This is might change in the near future...

Hi,

I'm on a mac and I am a noob... I can't make it work. I get this :

$ go run /Users/Adri/Documents/DOCS/PROG/Tello/tello-desktop-master/cmd/tello-package/tello-desktop.go

Documents/DOCS/PROG/Tello/tello-desktop-master/cmd/tello-package/tello-desktop.go:39:2: cannot find package "github.com/SMerrony/tello" in any of:

I think some files are missing. How do I install them ? Or maybe it won't work on a mac ?

Anyway thanks for the work. It is nice to see such enthusiasm with such a small object

 

[SMerrony]

I'm not at all sure it will work on a Mac (unless you have mplayer installed), but try doing a 'go get gitHub.com/SMerrony/tello' beforehand.

If that reduces the number of errors, do the same for the missing SDL packages.

 

[adr94]

Thanks for the reply. Mplayer is installed, SDL packages too but there is still something missing :

$ go run /Users/Adri/Documents/DOCS/PROG/Tello/tello-desktop-master/cmd/tello-package/tello-desktop.go

# pkg-config --cflags sdl2

pkg-config: exec: "pkg-config": executable file not found in $PATH

 

[SMerrony]

From the go-sdl2 site...

On macOS, install SDL2 via Homebrew like so:
brew install sdl2{,_image,_mixer,_ttf,_gfx} pkg-config

 

[adr94]

OK thanks for your patience, it works on mac !

I used the -joyhelp commande with my ps4 controller (usb) but the mapping does not match :

-left stick ok
-right stick does not work
-triangle and X inverted with square and circle
-L1 L2 not tried yet

Sorry but I don't know how to change my go version to 1.11.0. (DEV version) Can you help me with this?

Hello Stephen,
I really like your app (tello-desktop). Do you think that is possible to add commands like move forward, back, right, left setting the distance or rotate setting an angle?

 

[adr94]

Hello,

I can't run the desktop-package, I get this error :

18:13:43 Failed to open font ../../assets/Inconsolata-Bold.ttf due to Couldn't open ../../assets/Inconsolata-Bold.ttf

exit status 1

Maybe someone can help.

Thanks
