User guide

This guide will walk you through the Olympe API using a series of examples that demonstrate increasingly advanced usage.

Before continuing, you should first read the Olympe installation procedure.

For your own safety and the safety of others, the following examples will use a simulated Anafi drone but remember that Olympe is also capable of communicating with a physical drone. As far as Olympe is concerned, the main difference between a physical and a simulated drone is the drone’s network IP address.

Note

As a reminder, a simulated drone IP is 10.202.0.1, a real drone IP is 192.168.42.1 (over WiFi), a real SkyController IP is 192.168.53.1.

The full code for each example can be found in the src/olympe/doc/examples/ folder.
