TIPS FOR CODING IN FTW CODE
Code Hopper
It is recommended to command Hopper to hover right after takeoff, and right before landing. This can help stabilize Hopper so that other commands could be more precise when the code is run.
When connecting Hopper to FTW CODE, it might be necessary to wait for Hopper’s battery percentage to show up before they are paired.
Do not code Hopper’s altitude too close to the ceiling as Hopper’s propellers can suction into the ceiling and crash Hopper. When using activity towers in settings with low ceilings, keep them at 4 feet tall.
Practice writing and running some basic code before attempting any lessons or activities.
