Control a Drone with JavaScript

on YouTube ↗33m

" summary

Title claims wiring a consumer drone to JavaScript and the page shows whether that is literal. Expect a browser-based control path, visible code for connecting to the drone, and an image feed used for navigation or tracking. Look for exact libraries and protocol names, a count of retries or failures during flights, and a clear live outcome: a live flight demo that either succeeds on stage or documents what broke and how it was fixed.
