9 F.A.Q.<br />
Here you will find questions frequently asked on the different forums.<br />
Why is the Android example incomplete ?<br />
The AR.<strong>Drone</strong> product was designed to work with an ad-hoc Wifi connection, in order to be<br />
controllable anywhere in the wild from a mobile device like the iPhone. Unfortunately Google<br />
does not currently officially allow the use of ad-hoc connections with the Android OS. Though<br />
such connection is technically possible, the Android example application is not a priority until<br />
Google changes its mind. It was successfully run on a Nexus One phone though, and the code<br />
is provided for people who are not afraid of jail breaking their phone and getting their hands<br />
dirty.<br />
Can I add some additional hardware to the drone ?<br />
This is currently not supported. The drone has a USB master port that could be used later to<br />
customize the drone hardware, but it is disbaled on current drones.<br />
Can I replace the embedded drone software with my own ? Can I get the sensors and engines<br />
specifications ?<br />
No. This SDK is meant to allow remote controlling of the drone only.<br />
