DroneBridge for ESP32
Secure & transparent telemetry link with support for WiFi and ESP-NOW
DroneBridge for ESP32 is lightweight firmware that turns inexpensive ESP32 boards into wireless telemetry links for drones and other vehicles. It bridges serial data to standard Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Long Range, ESP-NOW, or Bluetooth Low Energy. MAVLink, MSP, LTM, and arbitrary serial payloads can be transported through the system. Standard Wi-Fi can reach roughly 150 meters, while compatible ESP-NOW or long-range Wi-Fi setups can extend much farther. Traffic can be encrypted with AES-256-GCM, including broadcast-based ESP-NOW communication. A web interface handles configuration, and over-the-air updates simplify maintenance. The project focuses on telemetry and low-data-rate communication rather than video transmission. -

Flix
Making an ESP32-based quadcopter from scratch
Flix is an open-source ESP32-based quadcopter project built from general-purpose components for education, research, and experimentation. Its firmware is written in Arduino-style C++ and intentionally kept compact so learners can understand the complete flight-control stack. Communication uses MAVLink over Wi-Fi or ESP-NOW. The drone can be controlled with a USB gamepad, radio controller, or smartphone. A wireless command-line interface supports configuration and analysis without a wired connection. The project also includes a Gazebo simulator that runs the original flight code and a Python library for scripted or automatic flights. Hardware files, assembly instructions, troubleshooting guides, and flight-control documentation make it suitable for hands-on learning. -

ESP8266 USB Software Driver
Software-only ESP8266 USB Device
ESPUSB is a software-only USB device stack that adds low-speed USB capability to ESP8266 and ESP8285 microcontrollers. It implements the USB protocol primarily in software instead of relying on dedicated USB hardware. The design needs only a small amount of external circuitry and uses adjacent GPIO pins for the D+ and D- signals. It operates at USB low speed, making it suitable for human-interface devices and control-oriented peripherals. The repository includes an example that emulates a USB keyboard and mouse. A web interface can remotely control those virtual input devices over the ESP8266 network connection. The implementation is highly memory-conscious and includes custom control-message handling, hardware designs, and build tooling for embedded experimentation. -

ar-drone
A node.js client for controlling Parrot AR Drone 2.0 quad-copters
ar-drone is a Node.js client library for controlling Parrot AR.Drone quadcopters over their network protocol. It provides a high-level API for common flight operations such as takeoff, landing, altitude changes, rotation, directional movement, and hovering. Programs can receive navigation telemetry including flight state, altitude, and other sensor data. Camera output can be accessed as raw video streams or converted into PNG frames through FFmpeg. The library also exposes predefined flight animations, LED sequences, configuration commands, and emergency recovery controls. An interactive REPL lets developers experiment with drone commands directly before building autonomous scripts. Lower-level UDP controls are available for applications that need closer access to the drone's command protocol. -

ESP-Drone
Mini Drone/Quadcopter Firmware for ESP32 and ESP32-S Series SoCs
ESP-Drone is an open-source quadcopter platform built around Espressif ESP32, ESP32-S2, and ESP32-S3 microcontrollers. It combines lightweight hardware with firmware derived in part from the Crazyflie project. Pilots can control the drone through a mobile application or compatible gamepad over wireless connections. Stabilize mode provides basic assisted flight, while additional hardware enables height-hold and position-hold modes. The project supports the Crazyflie client ecosystem and ESP-BOX3 joystick control through ESP-NOW. Android and iOS companion application source code is available separately. Its simple architecture makes it particularly suitable for education, experimentation, and embedded drone development. -

DroneSploit
Drone pentesting framework console
DroneSploit is a Python command-line framework for authorized security testing of drones and related wireless systems. Its interface is modeled after Metasploit to provide a familiar module-oriented workflow for security researchers. The framework gathers drone-specific assessment techniques and security modules in one console. Individual modules activate only when their required external tools and dependencies are available. Its architecture is built on the SploitKit framework and can be extended with additional modules. The project has been presented as a drone penetration-testing research platform at security conferences. Because its capabilities can affect real devices and networks, it is appropriate only for systems covered by explicit testing authorization. -

FASTER
3D Trajectory Planner in Unknown Environments
FASTER is a research-grade 3D trajectory planner for autonomous navigation in unknown environments. It was developed for both aerial robots and ground vehicles that must move safely while new obstacles are discovered. The planner continuously builds safe and unknown-space trajectory segments rather than assuming the environment is fully mapped. Optimization is used to generate dynamically feasible paths while maintaining safety constraints. The project integrates with ROS, Gazebo, MAVROS, mapping components, and the Gurobi optimizer. Simulation examples demonstrate navigation for UAVs and ground robots in cluttered spaces. FASTER was published in IEEE Transactions on Robotics and is primarily intended for robotics research rather than turnkey consumer navigation.
