At the local lecture we got thought how to use platformIO. I was already used to Arduino IDE v2. But I found the UI and the speeds of PlatformIO very nice so that's why I decided to switch to PlatformIO.
|
||||
|
||||
First off. I created a new project with the Xiao espC3 because the espC6 isn't registered on the list. I've googled a bit and that's because PlatformIO needs to get profit so they ask money to the board developers to add the board to their platform. So we need to set the correct board later on.
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
When it created the project. I copied all the files over to the src folder and renament my drone.ino to main.cpp. Now I had a lot of include errors because Arduino IDE automatically imports everything and with PlatformIO you need to define everything yourself. So I started out in the Library manager installing all the libraries to the project I needed.

### Programming and compiling and uploading
|
||||
Using platformIO is really straight forward. The only folder you should look at in your platformIO project is the `src` folder.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
In the main.cpp file you can write your program to run on a microcontroller.
|
||||
|
||||
On the bottom of your screen you see that there are a few new buttons.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The Compile and Upload and Serial console buttons are going to be the most used. Compile compiles the code and checks if it's correct. If it has incorrect syntax you need to correct it. The upload button compiles the code first and then sends it to the Microcontroller. The Serial console is a really nice debug tool to see what the microcontroller is doing if you added print statements in your code.
|
||||
|
||||
## Editing the new driver
|
||||
Adding in support for the BNO085. The original driver doesn't support the BNO085.
|
||||
I first started off searching for every instance of an existing sensor.
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
From there I started out changing everything to BNO085 and also importing the correct library. As I have found the correct library earlier in the code.

I am not sure what it does. It sets some values for the calculations later on. So I copied over the configuration for the MPU6050 because it was the most similar to the BNO085. 
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting up the sensor
|
||||
For this part I went into the documentation of the Sparkfun BNO0xx library. I first looked through the rest of the code what values it wanted because with the BNO085 you need to enable which information you want.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
When digging deeper into the driver to where it pulls the data from the sensors you can see what values it want's and according to that I can go through the documentation to enable the correct data outputs.
|
||||
|
||||
I went to the [examples list](https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_BNO080_Arduino_Library/tree/main/examples) of the library and clicked every data example I needed.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
I first clicked the data type I needed.
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
Then I copied the line that enabled the data output.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
Then I inserted it into the driver code.
|
||||
|
||||
### Getting data from the sensors
|
||||
This step goes similar to the last step except you need to copy over another bit.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
What this part does is acquire the sensor data and storing it in a variable. The same needs to be done in the driver like this.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The only issue is that the BNO085 can't output degrees. So we need to convert the radians to degrees using a simple formula I found on google.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The same also has to be done later on in the error correction algorithm
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
That was the last we needed to change. Hopefully it works now since I still need to fix some compile errors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Creating my own controls
|
||||
I want to create my own controller. So I need to edit the current controls. The base driver attempts to set up radio communication. We won't be using that so I'm gonna comment that out.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
When attempting to compile it still throws some errors so there are still functions being called from the original radio script. The error log indicated it comes from line 1239
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
So I will be needing to make my own case to control the drone.
|
||||
|
||||
I wanna control to drone using another microcontroller, specifically an esp because then I can use the espNOW protocol to connect them together and get communication running between them. First I wanna make something functional before I upgrade it so that's why I'm starting out easy.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Components for the controller
|
||||
Im going to start off with 2 sliding potentiometers and a espC3 for throttle and for left-right. The Driver expects PWM frequencies so I'm sending PWM frequencies based on the potsliders.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
* [PotSlider](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005006733220962.html) x2
|
||||
* [espC3 supermini](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005008125438785.html) x1
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Wiring the controller
|
||||
To read the Pot meter values we need to read the resistance from the potslider. So we need analog read. When looking at the datasheet I can see that I can use pins from 0 to 5.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Wiring it is pretty straight forward, VCC to 3v3, GND to GND and the out pin to a analog pin.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Programming the controller
|
||||
#### Testing if I can upload
|
||||
I started out by creating a new PlatformIO project. And selected the `Lolin Wemos C3 Mini`. Then I tried to upload some code to see if it worked.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
In short the answer was yes. I was a bit surprised because the ESP-C3 supermini isn't in the list of platformIO.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Reading the Potentiometer
|
||||
Reading the potentiometer is really straightforward. The only line we need is `analogRead()`, something to tell the pin that's it an input and something to print it to console.
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
#include <Arduino.h>
|
||||
|
||||
void setup(){
|
||||
Serial.begin(9600); //Opens serial bus
|
||||
pinMode(0, INPUT); //sets pin 0 to input
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
void loop(){
|
||||
Serial.println(analogRead(0)); //prints the result of analogRead() to console
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When attempting to upload this I got this error a few times.
|
||||

|
||||
Then I remembered from the local lecture that if you `press and hold boot > press reset > release boot`. You can start the microcontroller in boot mode so you can easily flash to it.
|
||||
|
||||
After flashing it onto the microcontroller I could test it.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
I've noticed there are some ghost values when it needs to be 0 so I need a small area where it's always 0. The upper side of the Potentiometer is always 4095 thats the max value so that's good.
|
||||
|
||||
##### Fixing the ghost measurements
|
||||
Im going to map everything lower than 80 to 80 using software. The reason im doing 80 is because then it will keep on counting up from 80 instead of jumping from 0 to 81 and I didn't see any ghost readings above 80.

This directory is intended for project header files.
|
||||
|
||||
A header file is a file containing C declarations and macro definitions
|
||||
to be shared between several project source files. You request the use of a
|
||||
header file in your project source file (C, C++, etc) located in `src` folder
|
||||
by including it, with the C preprocessing directive `#include'.
|
||||
|
||||
```src/main.c
|
||||
|
||||
#include "header.h"
|
||||
|
||||
int main (void)
|
||||
{
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Including a header file produces the same results as copying the header file
|
||||
into each source file that needs it. Such copying would be time-consuming
|
||||
and error-prone. With a header file, the related declarations appear
|
||||
in only one place. If they need to be changed, they can be changed in one
|
||||
place, and programs that include the header file will automatically use the
|
||||
new version when next recompiled. The header file eliminates the labor of
|
||||
finding and changing all the copies as well as the risk that a failure to
|
||||
find one copy will result in inconsistencies within a program.
|
||||
|
||||
In C, the convention is to give header files names that end with `.h'.
|
||||
|
||||
