Hi!
I wonder if you have been able to use bluetooth on your raspberry pi 4?
while scaning for devices i keep getting “No default controller available”. I have you experienced it? and solved it?
Best!
It has been disabled in the config.txt file by dtoverlay=disable-bt, right?
So it might be asked how to enable it and still have serial functionality? You can use /Serial0 in lieu of /ttyAMA0 for the ‘newer’ RPi’s and maybe use miniuart-bt,krnbt=on to use with /ttyS0?

I haven’t had luck with it.
Hi @jax200
What if i use a dongle to connect to the headset and then plug it in the usb port in the pi? Will i then still need to enable the bt in the txt file? 
Thanks man! I really appreciete your time
I thought you were referring to the companion RPi used with the drone? Why do you want to use a headset?
If just with the RPi alone there are plenty of tutorials on setting up the bt.
Yes! i am referring to companion RPi used with the drone. But i want to verbally send command to the drone instead of using the computer
I tried to follow these threads but no luck.

I can now connect my headphones with the rpi but i could not use the microphone for some reason. so i am looking for other options
So you are aware of Caleb’s latest project here that might help with what you want?

I did this on another (option 3):

I have used this to speak into a mic which runs code and displays text on a moving LED display. It asks for a language and what I want to say. It then displays what I say in English in the language I choose and reads it out of a speaker.
Thanks!
i do not have a webbcam so i tried an usb wireless adapter, but still the pi cannot regonise the hardware 
Hi @jax200
i followed the video and tried the audio to text on the pi but it failed to find the audio 
thx, changed it but still not working.
keep getting recognition request failed: Unauthorized
feedback when i run the script maybe @caleberg knows?
