Drones are used more ubiquitously these days with controllers capable to control them from ground through TCP or UDP messages in a wireless network. Dronecode offers a platform to control and program drones, with a simulation environment to sandbox the developments. Developed in Python, Dronecode is managed by the Linux Foundation. In this recipe, we will run a simplest of drone simulation. More interesting recipes can be learned by following their website (https://www.dronecode.org).
Controlling drones with a wireless network
Getting ready
Dronekit requires Python 2.7 to run. Install the Dronekit and Dronekit Software in the Loop (SITL) Simulator using Python pip:
