The main open-source firmware for Bitcraze's Crazyflie Nano Quadcopter, Crazyflie Bolt, and Roadrunner Positioning Tag, written in C. It provides flight control, positioning, and expansion capabilities for these small drone platforms.

Use cases

  • flash custom firmware onto a Crazyflie quadcopter
  • modify drone flight control code for research experiments
  • build a Roadrunner positioning tag for indoor localization
  • develop custom drone behaviors for swarm robotics
  • contribute to open-source drone firmware

When to choose

  • you own a Crazyflie 2.x, Bolt, or Roadrunner device and want to customize its behavior
  • you are doing robotics research with small quadcopters
  • you need a well-documented open-source drone firmware to extend

When to avoid

  • you need firmware for a different drone platform
  • you want a high-level drone SDK without touching embedded C code
  • you need a plug-and-play commercial drone solution
