Connect to a Parrot drone.

parrotObj = parrot('Mambo')
parrotObj = 
          parrot with properties:

                    Name: "Mambo"
                      ID: "Mambo_564853"
                   State: "landed"
            BatteryLevel: 50%
        AvailableCameras: ["FPV"]

Use the parrot object to initiate takeoff of the Parrot drone.

takeoff(parrotObj)

While the Parrot drone is in flight, move the drone backwards for the default duration of 0.5 seconds.

moveback(parrotObj);

Connect to a Parrot drone.

parrotObj = parrot('Mambo')
parrotObj = 
          parrot with properties:

                    Name: "Mambo"
                      ID: "Mambo_564853"
                   State: "landed"
            BatteryLevel: 50%
        AvailableCameras: ["FPV"]

Use the parrot object to initiate takeoff of the Parrot drone.

takeoff(parrotObj)

While the Parrot drone is in flight, move the drone backwards for 5 seconds.

moveback(parrotObj,5);

Connect to a Parrot drone.

parrotObj = parrot('Mambo')
parrotObj = 
          parrot with properties:

                    Name: "Mambo"
                      ID: "Mambo_564853"
                   State: "landed"
            BatteryLevel: 50%
        AvailableCameras: ["FPV"]

Use the parrot object to initiate takeoff of the Parrot drone.

takeoff(parrotObj)

While the Parrot drone is in flight, move the drone backwards for 5 seconds at an angle of 0.5236 radians.

moveback(parrotObj,5,deg2rad(30));
