PicoozIR changelog

Have you heard of the Picoo Z toy helicopter model? Yes, that one with infrared capabilities. If you could recall from a few months back, developer pacopad turned the Sony PlayStation Portable into that toy's remote control with the homebrew app, picoozIR. Flying was a bit iffy then, but not anymore, thanks to picoozIR's version 4 and its new flying engine.

Coder pacopad made sure that the toy won't have any awkward movements with a rebuilt flying engine. Here are the complete integrated changes from pacopad's readme:

• New gfx interface
• New flying engine, no more cutting during the flight
• Add of the Picooz SkyChallengers support
• English interface

There are still bugs however as observed by pacopan. The Fire function may not work at all times. Likewise, picoozIR may have some issue when an mp3 file is played while the homebrew app is operating. Be sure to check the readme before anything else.

French homebrew developer pacopad has just devised a program that allows users to control the micro infrared helicopter Picoo Z using the PlayStation Portable. We know you are familiar with the toy, it's just that it was released in the West under the name Air Hogs Havoc Heli.

The name of the application is PicoozIR and is currently in version 2. Here's the translated version of the changelog for this release:

• Added 2 modes of driving.
• Transition Command Mode 1 in analog.
• Search for MP3 improved (deeper in the tree).
• The program leaves cleanly (not crash over the PSP).
• Before using 2 new modes, the author strongly recommends that the test without the helicopters, just to observe the behavior of gauze and management.
• To begin with the flight mode 3, you have to set the background to stick to the bottom so that the indication "NoGo" a pass "Go". For any cut, press the down arrow and then returns indicated a "NoGo" Version 2 was completed, tested and approved.
• Version 2 was completed, tested and approved.
• Pacopad already working on version 3, which will incorporate other models picooz.

pacopad also mentioned that PicoozIR is compatible with firmware 1.5 and custom firmwares from Team M33 and Dark AleX. The program comes with an English Readmet.txt file that should provide you other necessary information about installation and usage.
