Drone Timer (PIDFlight ESP32)
Description
What it is? ====== It is a timer for your fpv drones and whoops. How does it work? ====== It uses the video transmission signal to estimate the position of the drone, so no new hardware needed on the drones. You calibrate the signal in a certain "gate" and then track your lap times with it. _____________________________ Make one ====== Print the case and order the parts. You have to superglue the switch slider parts. The two teardrop-shaped holes need to be filled with some translucent material. They difuse the ESP32 T8 leds, I used a 3d pen and translucent PLA as you can see in one of the photos. Check https://github.com/eried/pidflight-lap-firmware for more details. ### ** Parts ** * ESP32 TTGO T8 https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_d6sfNUb * RX5808 https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_dUaM1rh * 2x 4.7K resistors * Small battery (optional) i.e.: https://aliexpi.com/ZSsn * Buzzer (optional) https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_d75AAWT ### ** Software ** It uses PIDFlight firmware and app (available for several platforms). I adapted the firmware to run on the ESP32. In the future it could work standalone, using BT, Wifi and the SD capabilities of the microcontroller. *Demo:* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKgIOPRDrkA
