PCBWay is one of the most experienced PCB manufacturers in China, consider them your one-stop solution that offers PCB fabrication, turn-key PCB Assembly, PCB design, 3D printing, and CNC machining services.
In this video, I made an antweight flipper (150g) robot with a custom ESP32-C3 based control board, as an alternative to the Malenki-Nano. Named the 'AntC3', it has double the motor current output, and can be controlled by any other ESP chip, in this case, the ESP32-S3 inside of a T-QT Pro Lilygo development board. If you're reading this, make sure to like, subscribe, and comment down below for your chance to win the next iteration of my AntC3 board when I hit 4K subscribers, which will include an accelerometer + gyroscope combo for more accurate movements. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoyed the video.

"implementing a working, proven solution is cringe" needs to be on a shirt
Truth!
That’s it, printing it and shirts will be on sale soon 😅 - Haase Industries mum ❤;)
@@pterribilis let me know when they're up!
Your wish is my command. Please comment if you would like one of these shirts (reply to this), I'll post on my community page some time today with a picture of the shirt.
🎉
awesome! we love to see more builders experimenting with programming in robot combat like we did! there are so many more options available as show shown with button activated flippers or even pre recorded animation to automate self-righting complex bots!
Exactly, thanks!
Awesome! I've been playing around with a similar control system except without a custom pcb. My transmitter is an esp32 while the receiver is a wemos d1 mini (esp8266) using a MX1616 dual h bridge as the motor controller. Incredibly accessible way into the hobby as opposed to typical radio systems. This one video has blown away all my plans to try to make a custom pcb. You've done everything I could want to but better lmao.
lol thank you man
Are you using espnow communication.?
Yes
Nice job, and you built a great flipper. Can't wait till you post your first event.
Thanks man
Very enlightening and fun to watch! Keep it up!! 🤙
Great work. Well done.
This is fantastic!!! Great job!
what an AWESOME VIDEO! congrats! I love this I almost want to build this for myself.. would love to see more about robotics!
Nice work! Great skillset you've developed for yourself. Keep it up!
Really cool build. I like it
Great stuff, you're doing all the right things!
Thanks dude!
This is way nicer than the custom antweight control solution I made, which was basically just a fancy breakout for a seeed xiao and an IMU.
Subbed!
Thanks!
Awesome little robot. Good job
awsome project
This bot is real cute , loved it❤
amazing video!
Great Video, Awesome robot
keep it up mate... I believe you have a big future ahead for you.
Thanks so much!
This is what im calling "a little hulk", you have done good job, would like to see V2
bot looks amazing! really hoping to see it compete!
This is a really awesome project. Just aged out of FRC and I am wanting to get into robot fighting.
Very cool, would love to see a how-to for making the transmitter
This is a great design, love the custom board that would probable sell well if you setup a small store of sorts.
Great work ❤
Fire build! Would love to have one myself, and greetings from Germany!
Thanks bro
Nice work! Btw I always used 3.3V signal for servos/ESCs and never had an issue. I don't think that you need these level shifters. These servos work fine with both 3.3V and 5V signals. If the datasheet is good enough you can find out that the high signal is something like "above 1.8V" and that is totally fine for 3.3V signal
Thanks dude, apparently MG92B absolutely requires it though (check out Adafruit’s website on it), so I added it in just to be safe. Thanks for the info
vehicular robotslaughter
Also, it looks like it wants to talk😂 anyways good vid
Yes, thank you so much man
Great work !....cheers.
your board looks amazing! (im going to steal it hehehe)
I am really jealous of you, i am also interested in electronics but can't do anything due to lack of resources 😕 love you work btw
cool vid and cool robot
This is guy is a awesome content creator
Wow, nice video! I just went and saw your esp32 custom board, and was wondering if you have and guides to understand wtf each part is and purpose?
Yeah, check my channel, and click on the ESP32-S3 + Chip antenna PCB in 15 minutes video, it is there. Thanks. The schematic is also available for that board
@@hxtec32 I’m sorry, I explained my question poorly. I saw the video, but I want to know why each part is there and what it does. Is there any guides for that? From what I saw you mainly just said the name of each part.
Great video dwag
Thanks bro
At 6:51 that battery looks like a spicy pillow!!
Yeah, it’s kinda weird. It’s a venom 2S 300mAh, and it looked like that out of the box… I think it’s either just thick to make the length and width less, or it’s damaged, I don’t know… Are thicker LiPos a thing? Or, maybe they are in a 2S2P arrangement… My other 2S LiPo doesn’t look so thick like this though… let me know if it could be damaged if you know much about this, thanks for commenting man
@@hxtec32 Well, I know that typically pouch cells are supposed to be flat, and that those assembled high current packs also are rectangular slab shape. Now, I don't know the specifics of that brand/model pack but to me it sure looks sus!
@@MistahHeffo well it is flat though, except the side where the plug comes out, and the back, as most LiPos are. I charged them at 2C and they didn’t blow up. Thanks for the info though
Dang! Nice work, mate!
Found your channel from the comment you left over on Cheesecake's latest tournament vid.
Thanks so much man! Appreciate it
You don't even need to purchase a transmitter.. ESP32 dev module comes with built =- in Bluetooth that you can connect with your phone and control the bot..
I really want to see it in action 😍
It’s at the end of the video lol, the chapters. But, I haven’t taken it to an actual fight yet
good job son
that was really nice, i would like us to work together some time.
Great video, please share the details of silicone wheels
Thanks, yes I will
@@hxtec32 Please tell me the names
@@EDISON_SCIENCE_CORNER it is in the video.
It is a beast
Thank you good sir
Can you share the gerber files? Or is this not an "open" project
So, it isn't fully open-source, because I thought the schematic would be good enough for people to learn from. I don't want people manufacturing my boards because I am an inexperienced PCB designer, and, as an example of this, this board overheats on standby when plugged into a 2-cell LiPo, and can be felt being warm through more than 2mm of PLA (which is horrible at conducting heat), due to the linear regulators, a horrible choice for converting ~8V to 3.3V. Sorry, I hope you can learn from the schematic, and Espressif's ESP32-C3 hardware design guidelines as I have, docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-hardware-design-guidelines/en/latest/esp32c3/pcb-layout-design.html.
Now i want to see this bot fight ! GG
beutiful hawaiian man
Beautiful rice eating man ❤️
@@hxtec32 ikr
how did it go?
good question
Wear gloves when handling chemicals if you want to live a long life :) amazing work at such a young age! I wish I was born in this era and learned these things younger haha
Yeah I got uncured silicone on my hands twice, and then proceeded to wash them for about 3 minutes, each hand. Don't know how dangerous that was, but apparently, the cured thing is 'food-safe', which probably means nothing when the silicone rubber is still in its separate two parts. Thanks man!
