I’m more impressed with repurposing some parts like the cameras, good work!

So the commands were sent through RC channel, what was the bandwidth? Maybe I missed it but I didn’t hear it in the video.

Project looks great but the application is kind of limited as it relies on the external components (cameras), really hard to do in the wild, even in urban environments.

It was over wifi, with the ESP32.

Seems people say real world around 8mbps:

Thanks, that makes sense, I thought it was the typical ~900MHz which would be even more interesting.
