 Make ESP8266 Drone

(This Drone Can Climb on Wall)


 
This Blog I’m going to tell you how I made ESP8266 Drone (This Drone Can Climb on Wall) and how it works ?

You know what is the function of a drone, just can fly if I tell you that my drone can climb on wall or go underwater like a submarine, You would think that this is making you crazy, so let’s not go, today we will show you by making it.

For a drone we need a flight controller but we don’t have much money for flight clontroller So don’t worry already made my own flight controller if you haven’t seen my earlier project then go and see I have made a very cheap flight controller using ESP8266 in it I have given the link below.

Supplies For Esp8266 Drone

Table of Contents

Components Required (let’s have a look at the main components of a drone)

If you are electronics hobbyist than you will find All parts listed below in your inventory -:)

Tools Used: 

A drone will consist of frame, motors, propellers, electric motor, flight controller, battery, Here is a short summary of each  parts of a quadcopter.

Flight Controller:

The flight controller (a.k.a FC) is the brain of the aircraft. it’s a circuit board with a range of sensors that detect movement of the drone, as well as user commands. If you tell it to go forward, the flight controller will adjust the RPM of the rear motors so that it goes forward.

ESP8266 Module

To communicate with the drone we will need bluetooth or wifi connection so we are using Esp8266 Wi-Fi module because it has inbuilt Wi-Fi, we can use it for communicate. Talking about range of the Drone.. I have got around 70 meter range using my Samsung mobile acting as WiFi Hotspot and remote controller.

Mpu6050

MPU6050 IMU, a low-cost device that contains both a gyroscope and accelerometer. We will use the MPU-6050 with an Esp8266 module to build an Drone. Learn more About MPU-6050 and Arduino.

Coreless Motor

Coreless Motor are Mini motors used in Quadcopter and Drones, These motor are coreless it mean they do not have metal core in the rotor, Coreless motors can achieve higher RPM with less load. These motors are suitable for micro drones, quadcopters or Mini projects.

Propellers

There’s no challenge that without drone propellers,  The purpose of your propeller is to generate thrust and torque to keep your drone flying.

Schematic for Esp8266 Drone Flight Controller

ESP12e (ESP8266) Based receiver control module Schematic:

Make the Circuit : Make the circuit by following the schematic diagram given in the above picture.

I have already explained the connection details of each component

Build Frame

Frame: The frame provides the structure and rigidity and it’s where all the components will be mounted onto. Chose wooden pencils then i gave it shape of your quadcopter.

Assembling the frame and mounting the ESP8266 flight controller, The first thing we need to do is assemble the frame. i used pencil for fram if you have 3d printer then you can print a good frame.

Software for Esp8266 Drone

Using Arduino IDE: If you want to edit (i.e. SSID and password of WiFi network – Android Hotspot in this case) than this is best method to follow.

  1. Install Arduino IDE
  2. Install ESP8266 Boards
  3. Install ESP8266WiFi.h library
  4. Copy code and put your own wifi SSID and password in code
