Keyboard Controller for Parrot Mambo drone using simulink?

I am designing a simulink model that will enable real time control of a Parrot Mambo drone using the keyboard of a controller. I am able to turn the motors on and off by using the examples in simulink. However some guidance will be appreciated in achieving movement in the yaw and pitch directions, in regards to what blocks would be useful and steps taken in generating variable thrust of motors.

were you able to do this real-time?

Hi Kendrick,

If you are still looking for the getting started steps or know more about it, I hope the Simulink " Path Planning Using Keyboard Control for Parrot Minidrone " shall help you with the same.

Please find the following link:Path Planning Using Keyboard Control for Parrot Minidrone

Thank you.

Hello Vinod Hedge,

I tried the example "Path Planning Using Keyboard Control for Parrot Minidrone" but when I run it, the command always returns the same problem: Unable to build 'nonlinearAirframe' template because the template configuration differs from the one used to generate code in the shared utilities folder 'C:\Users\makaban\Documents\MATLAB\Examples\R2025b\parrot\PathPlan\ParrotMinidroneKeyboardControl\work\slprj\ert\_sharedutils'.

How should I proceed to correct the error because, presumably, simply deleting the 'work\slprj\ert\_sharedutils' folder is not working ?

Hi Michel,

Could you please confirm which version of MATLAB you are using?

We are aware of a regression in the Path Planning Using Keyboard Control for Parrot Minidrone, in recent release and the team is currently working on a fix that will be included in an upcoming release.

In the meantime, to get the Keyboard Setup working with Parrot Minidrone we have an example

Thank you.

Yes, I use the R2025b version to work.

Yes, I use the R2025b version to work. What is the most appropriated version of MATLAB for this example ?
