CC3D Flight Controller Firmware Changing
Posted on: 11 Feb 2023
Introduction: The CC3D is a powerful and affordable flight controller that is very popular to use mainly on mini quad copters due to its small form factor. It has many advanced features that you can use if you add a GPS module, even way point based flight,. However, most users don’t bother with this for […]
Hacking a Sonoff to Work With Home-Assistant and MQTT
Posted on: 08 Feb 2023
OK So my third Instructable and here we’re dealing with another Sonoff device, the original Sonoff WiFi smart switch. Theses devices are again based around the ESP8266 and are easily hacked. The devices can switch up to 10A @ 240V so are ideal for switching lights, TV’s, games consoles etc. Please don’t try running a […]
Interface I2C LCD Using NodeMCU
Posted on: 08 Feb 2023
Wassup Makers!! In this Instructables we will learn how to interface an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) to the NodeMCU board. These 16×2 LCDs are very popular and broadly used in electronics projects as they are good for displaying information like sensor data from your project, and also they are very cheap. Step 1: Things Needed We need few components to get […]
Build a Tank Volume Reader in Under $30 Using ESP32
Posted on: 07 Feb 2023
The Internet of Things has brought a lot of formerly complex device applications into the homes of many craft brewers and wine makers. Applications with level sensors have been used for decades in large refineries, water treatment plants, and chemical plants. With sensor prices falling, now both industrial and DIY can monitor the volume of […]
How To Build Arduino Thermal Camera
Posted on: 06 Feb 2023
I recently worked on an Arduino project to create a low-cost thermal camera using an IR sensor and pan/tilt hardware. When observing the device image on the left, you will notice an acoustic range finder attached to the top as well. The tool functions by scanning a pattern of dots and constructing the picture gradually. […]
ESP8266 Basement Monitor
Posted on: 06 Feb 2023
My basement gets wet when it rains a lot so I wanted a way to monitor it. I decided to try using an ESP8266 as it has built in WiFi. I paired that with a DHT22 Humidity & Temperature Sensor and a float sensor to monitor my sump pump. Using the ESP8266 is easy enough […]
WetRuler–Kitchen Helpers for the Visually Impaired
Posted on: 05 Feb 2023
I have worked most of my adult life with patients with vision problems in Alaska and pondered building a helpful device that would enable a more defined way of metering out fluids in a kitchen if users had no central vision. There are devices already for defining the limits of a cup with two wires […]

Step 1: Things to Be Collected To begin with this instructable all you need is : Hardware Requirement ADXL335 : Accelerometer Sensor NodeMCU Servo Motor Connecting Wires ( Optional ) Bread […]
Make A Low Cost LED Grid Using Arduino
Posted on: 05 Feb 2023
There are a number of great Instructables on LED grids out there. This is a low cost version – not quite as polished, but easy to make. This project uses a couple of sheets of foam core, a fluorescent fixture cover from the local home store, a cut up strip of WS2812b LEDs, and an […]
PINKY32 – THE TINY STM32F030 DEVELOPMENT BOARD YOU ALWAYS WANTED
Posted on: 05 Feb 2023
The STM32Fo30 is one of the most popular microcontrollers in the STM32 family. It’s relative low-power specification and high-resolution ADCs fetched it good followership among designers, as such, it was quite interesting to hear that Czechia-based electronics specialist and Tindie user, NiceThings, announced the launch of a new development board based on it, called the PINKY32. The board was […]
