HS-200
This package contains the Gobot driver for the Holystone HS200 drone.

API ReferenceHow to Install
go get -d -u gobot.io/x/gobot/...
How to Use
- Connect to the drone's Wi-Fi network and identify the drone/gateway IP address.
- Use that IP address when you create a new driver.
- Some drones appear to use a different TCP port (8080 vs. 8888?). If the example doesn't work scan the drone for open ports or modify the driver not to use TCP.
Here is a sample of how you initialize and use the driver:
package main import ( "time" "gobot.io/x/gobot" "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/holystone/hs200" ) func main() { drone := hs200.NewDriver("172.16.10.1:8888", "172.16.10.1:8080") work := func() { drone.TakeOff() gobot.After(5*time.Second, func() { drone.Land() }) } robot := gobot.NewRobot("hs200", []gobot.Connection{}, []gobot.Device{drone}, work, ) robot.Start() }

Random notes
- The hs200 sends out an RTSP video feed from its own board camera. Not clear how this is turned on. The data is apparently streamed over UDP. (Reference mentions rtsp://192.168.0.1/0 in VLC, I didn't try it!)
- The Android control app seems to be sending out the following TCP bytes for an unknown purpose:
00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 25 25
but the drone flies without a TCP connection. - The drone apparently always replies "noact\r\n" over TCP.
- The app occasionally sends out 29 bytes long UDP packets besides the 11 byte control packet for an unknown purpose:
26 e1 07 00 00 07 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 14 00 00 00 0e 00 00 00 03 00 00 00
- The doesn't seem to be any telemetry coming out of the drone besides the video feed.
- The drone can sometimes be a little flaky. Ensure you've got a fully charged battery, minimal Wi-Fi interference, various connectors on the drone all well seated.
- It's not clear whether the drone's remote uses Wi-Fi or not, possibly Wi-Fi is only for the mobile app.
