Devlog #4 WtP!v2. Ive finished everything form the code to the github to the case its all done well maybe the code isnt but it did verify. This was more fun than i thought it would be even as a side project.

Devlog #3 WtP!v2. My friend had the amazing idea of just not adding the solar panels to the case and just have them nearby so you can postion them anywhere and also have the case close to you. So i just added holes for the cables last thing i should add is like somewhere for the batteries to stay.
Devlog #2 WtPv2. Well the Case will be more chunky since the solar panels turned out bigger than i expected ill try to find better ones but as of now this is the case. yea…
Devlog #2. WtPv2. After getting feedback on my old design i will make a v2 with the improvments. Simply said it will be autonomous now. Ive made a Github & searched far and wide for the new components i will need (Solar Panel, Batteries, ESP32(with JST attachment)…) and next ill update the TinkerCAD aswell as the Case in Onshape
Devlog #1. First time using OpenRocket and its really understandable. I will make my latest onshape rocketmodel in OpenRocket and test how it will do.
Ive made a flightcontroller
Devlog Water this Plant! #3. So i did make a case, well a very basic one and the problem right now is where should i put the usb c (esp32) and where the moisture sensor. Should i put them both at the front of the case? or maybe one at the front one at the back? well ill see till tomorrow.
Devlog Water this Plant! #2. Made the Github and also the final referance in TinkerCAD the code is working and it seems to be looking good. This is maybe the final post software wise if i dont make a case or PCB.
Devlog Water my Plant #1. I made the Firmware for it today based of someones datasheet. Next ill make a KiCad referance board well or like use TinkerCAD.
Devlog #2 Sonar. Finished the Project with a bigger housing and tested it well it works. Fun little side project so i can get my mind abit off my flightcontroller.
Devlog #1 Sonar. Today I built a sonar scanning system using an Arduino Uno, an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, an SG99 micro servo and an 8x8 MAX LED. Compared to some of my bigger builds, this was a much easier project this time around but it was super fun to put together and see working so quickly! Mounted the HC sensor and SG99 servo onto a custom 3D printed (modeled in Onshape). Programmed a continuous 0° to 180° servo sweep in Arduino C++. Mapping angle sweeps across the 8 matrix rows and distance measurements across the 8 matrix rows. Created a GitHub repository with everything and it was almost done only thing left is abit of refining the Case for the HC
Drone Controller Devlog #15. IT WORKS. After asking around someone out of the city i brought my “Controller” and he had all the answers. Haha aswell as he told me that pin 9,10 and 11 are all flashing pins that i can not use so well thats cool they are 1 led and 2 switches so ill have to figure out something for that. And the big problem was that i didnt use a 104 capacitor for the en (reset) pin. Atleast got the screen working. But as it all is once one problem is resolved you get ten more…
Drone Controller Devlog #14. Last past days ive been trying to flash on the code with many people aswell as ai assiting me but it wont work as of now. I will try again tomorrow with different people which said they could prob fix it but if they cant idk what to do.
After trying the seed xiao rp2040 it turned out to be defect and wont start this will be the enf of the hackpad than. It was a fun project but i wont buy another seeed xiao rp2040 as its shipping is 20,00€ (It took 1 month to get to me). So im giving up on this project as i dont have any money to buy it nor time
Drone Controller Devlog #13. Its working!. Its not complett yet but ive soldered everything i could so far on. Its my second time soldering at home and i think i did a good enough job. (Btw the LED on means that its connected). Solding get really fun when its hard even solding the simplest parts is fun for me but im still yet not that good so if you have advise or things i should get for solding im always open.
Drone Controller Daedalus v1 Devlog #12. The PCB is finally here and i can start soldering it all. When i look at the esp32e and the 16 pin usb c i dont think ill do this first try but i hope i wont just break it.
Devlog #3 Wake Up! The code for Project Blare is finally wrapped! Since Ive never built a project quite like this before i was definitely out of my depth at first. I ended up using ai as a coding assistant to guide me and help write the firmware (ai just did everything). Uploaded the code to GitHubso its basically done software wise. I might change the case a bit down the line but this will propably be the final software post for this project.
Devlog #7 Satellite Drone Icarus v1. Finished the BOM and added the only things i have right now to the Github (The CAD is not finished but its all i could do without hardware). Next things to do will be the hardware in betaflight
Devlog #2 Wake Up!. Made the last touches on the case and started the Github, the design changes turned out to be worse than expected. Last things to do will be to improve my code and eventuallyadd it to the github.
