The FPV Tank Kit Using ESP32-CAM is a compact, Wi-Fi-enabled robot designed for live video streaming and web-based remote control. Inspired by the SMARS-style robot, it delivers a true First-Person-View (FPV) experience that can be accessed directly from your smartphone or PC β no additional app or controller required.
Equipped with the ESP32-CAM module, the robot streams real-time RGB video and allows complete movement control with intuitive on-screen buttons. The L293D motor driver ensures smooth, precise tank movement, while the onboard LED provides visibility in darker environments. This kit is ideal for STEM learning, IoT experiments, and personal robotics projects.
Note:
Complete wiring diagrams and code are included in the user manual.
Motor and switch connections require manual soldering.
Handle the 1S Li-Po battery carefully; do not discharge below 3 V to prevent permanent damage.
