Well. I'm actually trying. So. Because the ar drone 2.0 is not compatible with ARC , I decided to try to do it myself. Right now, the Movement Panel for the ar drone 1.0 works with my 2.0, but I cant see the camera.
So here's what I've come up with:
1.Mounting ez-b V4 with camera on ar drone(somewhat straight forward)
Or
2.Find a way to connect to the camera via a different program and relay it to ARC either via http or by using a program that will make the camera feed a system device.(anyone who can find this kind of program I will give all credit to)
Anyone who has comments is welcome to comment. If you have ideas or you already have a ar drone 2.0 with the camera working in ARC somehow PLEASE TELL US HOW!
Thank you for any comments that appear.
Now lets get those Ar drone 2.0's flying!
Have you tried using it like normal from a pc then look and see the properties for the video connection format?
I'm not quite sure what your saying, sorry. Your saying use a program to connect to the feed and then try to figure out the video codex and format?
Ok I have some options to try , download FFmpeg then use ... ffplay tcp://192.168.1.1:5555 to acces the video
Ffmpeg decodes the video compression from ardrone when connected and plays it through a tcp , you can download it here.

Second alternative is a Google project that you can download a java app to convert the video and view it on the pc http://code.google.com/p/javadrone/
where do I use the command? CMD prompt? when I click ffplay or any of the other applications it flashed cmd prompt and disappears.
Try your web browser to see if it pulls up and shows the video feed.
browser try's to search google. you know one that wont do this?
