What are the different methods of powering on my CoDrone EDU controller?

Updated by Robolink Support

There are 3 different methods to powering on your CoDrone EDU/J controller. 

When powering on your controller, please use only one power source at a time (eg. cable OR battery)

Standard Edition Controller (Black Controller): 

Standard Edition has a Micro-USB port
  1. Computer → Micro-usb cable → Controller (Most Recommended):
    1. You will have access to both the manual piloting state and the LINK state (programming state)
    2. To go back and forth between both states by giving the power button a quick press
  2. Powerbank → Micro-usb cable → Controller:
    1. Allows for seamless connectivity and the ability to have free range of motion when following the drone
    2. You will not be able to program as you are not connected to a computer
    3. Powerbank needs to be a minimum of 5,000 mah
  3. AA batteries 
    1. High-power maneuvers, such as "takeoff" and "landing," consume substantial energy and accelerate AA battery depletion

JROTC Edition Controller (White Controller):

JROTC Edition has a USB-C port
  1. Computer → USB-C → Controller (Most Recommended)
  2. Powerbank → USB-C Cable → Controller 
  3. Drone battery
