Not an issue, but rather something to help.

This is not an issue, but I think I have found a way to access the traffic flowing from the app to the drone. The WIFI on my drone has been finicky recently, so I was only able to do this once.

I installed BlueStacks, an Android emulator, on my PC. I then installed the Potensic-M2 app that is used to communicate with the drone. I used wireshark to analyze the traffic from the emulator to the drone. Unfortunately, I was only able to analyze the video feed. There were more packets, but I didn't know how to interpret them. I'm going to keep working on it today.

If you can send me the packet dumps then I could take a look at them and try to decode them, you'd have to send me dumps and tell me what steps you took to make the app send that data so I can correlate it.

I don't have a good emulator atm, but I've had some success with using the app on a normal phone, connecting a PC to the drone's network, and putting it in promiscuous mode. That gets me the packets, but I as well am trying to figure out what they mean.

Thanks for the interest in the project!

Yeah! I want to be able to fully pilot the drone from my PC.

How do you want me to send the packet dump?
