Hey everyone I'm trying to build 10+ drones and fly them using a pc for a show. I was thinking of using ESP modules and directional wifi for communication. However I'm stuck there. I know I need to build the show on the pc and push the data to the drones with gps coordinates but have no idea what programming language to use. The show will probably be in a csv file. Any help or direction I can research would be much appreciated.
Any thought about controlling the leading one, the normal way, and use a kind of "follow me" for number 2? Number 3 follows number 2. etc.? Ok, how to land that "train"?
GPS has its limits regarding accuracy so quite some separating distance would be adviced.
Dont you need speacial permission to do this, i.e. one person fly more than one RC controlled device ?
Think of the risks if this is a project you have no idea about.
What communications do the 'professionals' use for their systems, is Wi-Fi really robust enough, given the risks of flying a large number of drones at the same time ?
What experience do you have at drone flying ?
