FCS - Flight Control System

This is a software designed for my own rocket's flight computer which is based on the ESP32-S3.

Requirements:

  • rust
  • cargo
  • espup - install with cargo install espup && espup install
  • espflash - install with cargo install espflash --version 3.3.0

You can just run the setup.sh file.

Build & Flash:

You can just run build_and_flash.sh.

Components:

  • ESP32-S3
  • BMP280
  • MPU6050
  • PCA9685
  • nRF24L01
  • Arduino (ESP32-S3) compatible SD-Card reader
  • a GPS module (e.g. GY-GPS6MV2)
  • 2x simple N-MOSFET (though please check if it is usable with a chip such as this)
  • DHT11

PCB:

All the files for the PCB and the schematics are located in the pcb folder. These files are ready for manufacturing and usage.

Questions

How big is the FCS PCB PCB?

It measures 169.5 × 66 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the FCS PCB use?

18 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the FCS PCB KiCad files?

From the HannesScript/FCS repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/FCS_PCB.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/FCS_PCB.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the FCS PCB design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask HannesScript before reusing the design.
