Testing
The Crazyflie 2.0 is tested extensively in the production, but to make sure nothing has
happened during shipping/storage you should run the tests before starting the assembly.
Power on the Crazyflie 2.0 using a USB source (either computer or charger) and check the
results of the test below. Note that it’s important to hold the Crazyflie 2.0 steady during the
test and away from strong magnetic sources.
self-test
Before you start assembling anything, run the power on self-test by connecting the Crazyflie
2.0 to a uUSB power source. The LEDs M1 and M4 will indicate the result of the test. If the
M4 LED blinks GREEN five times fast, then the test has passed.
