Make sure you have the latest GPU drivers for your host system. You may see a warning message about your host system not providing 3D acceleration: Consider using external USB Wi-Fi adapters managed by your VM to connect to a real drone. Some host network adapters may not work well with the bridged network. Optionally enable the "bridged" network connection (if you plan to connect to a real drone):

increase the amount of memory available to the virtual machine (a good rule of thumb is 2048 MB per CPU core, but no less than 4 GB):.In the new window, set the following parameters: Right-click on the VM name and select Virtual Machine Settings. You can safely ignore the warning and press Retry. You may see a dialog box with a warning about the VM format: Use the Open a Virtual Machine option in VMware Player:

Import the OVA archive into your virtualization environment. Consult your system's manufacturer if you're having trouble turning virtualization on. The steps to enable virtualization differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, but should be described in your system manual.

Make sure that you have hardware virtualization enabled in your BIOS/UEFI (it may be supported by your hardware but turned off by default). The following steps assume you're using VMware Player. We recommend using VMware Player or VMware Workstation if possible. You need to use a VM manager that supports OVF format, like VirtualBox, VMware Player or VMware Workstation.Īt the time of writing VirtualBox had issues running the VM, particularly with 3D applications. You can download the latest VM image in the VM releases repository. The VM is an easy way to set up a simulation environment, but can be used as a development environment for a real drone as well. The default username on the VM is clover, with password clover.
