A palm-sized quadcopter built on the LiteWing ESP32-S3 — real flight over WiFi, with a safety envelope tight enough for a bedroom or classroom.
Watch each idea move below — no reading required.
Every flight starts the same way: take off, hold steady, land safely. These five missions use only real, working flight commands — takeoff, fly-to, rotate, and land — kept inside a safety box of 2 meters up and 3 meters out.
A drone in the air has fewer ways to feel the world than a rover on the ground. Right now this one truly senses two things — its own battery level and its height off the floor — and every mission here is built from just those two numbers.
No hidden claims here: this drone doesn't yet carry an obstacle, light, or motion sensor, so there's no honest "dodge a wall" or "chase a torch" card to show. Everything above uses only the two readings it actually reports.
The drone broadcasts its own WiFi, so a phone can take over from a laptop keyboard in a few taps — and once one flies, a second one can join in.
One small decision already runs on the drone's own ESP32 today. The next chapter borrows a laptop's horsepower over the same WiFi link that already flies it — these two are the next missions to build, not finished yet.
