If you put multimeter on motor and turn it fast you get a positive or negative voltage according to the wire connections so you can then make the positive wire regardless of color?

@@DanielSMatthews You're right. I was just obsessed with why the wire colors on these motors were different.

Wow! Fantastic! does the project has open source code? We could work on it, maybe get rid from the app and build a proper controller with a second ESP32 or connecting it to a wide area Wifi network! Give Us updates!

Maybe ESPNOW could be used to control the drone through another ESP32 based remote controller?

Wifi AP sounds slow. It would be fun to try to tune the stability myself and maybe try espnow. But $10 worth of parts for $50??

Oh nice, i just bought the kit some weeks ago but did not assembled it yet, so now seems the moment... i think you need to calibrate something no?

@@TheBlaser55 This is a difficult question. I think this requires more of something to balance the device itself than the communication method. I don't think it will get any better if you change it to ESP-NOW in its current state.

I bought the same drone. The drone connects to the phone, the lights are on, just like yours, but the motors don't work. I tried the motors one by one and they work. I thought there was a problem with the battery, so I first used a 30c 1000 mAh battery instead of a 3.7V 25c 650 mAh battery, but the result was the same. What do you think is the problem and why it didn't work?
@ThatProject3 ай бұрын
I had the same problem. When I used a 3.7v LiPo battery from another project, the system would boot up when the motors started and I couldn't fly the drone. So I bought a drone battery(mentioned in this video) and I was able to fly the drone with it. I think it should be fine if the maximum output current is 10A or more.

Someone who has no clue about drones in general shouldn't buy a kit.. or make recommendations.
