I am writing a program that can track my hands. Is it possible at all for me to connect this program to my remote for my racing drone that I have built and fly my drone from my hands?
Yes, it’s possible.
You need to build the controller yourself, though. There’s nothing off-the-shelf that does this.
I’d put this at about the level of an undergraduate engineering third year project in terms of difficulty.
What do you mean build the controller myself? Is there anyway that I could connect my current remote to my computer and have it run that way?
That’s what I mean by “build the controller.”
You need to connect your program to some sort of electrical output, and then wire that electrical output into your controller.
You could make this work with an Arduino. But be warned, you’re looking at at least a full weekend of work and a lot of self-study just to get the Arduino working. You’re also going to need to learn how to solder, to connect your Arduino to your controller.
This is not a project for laypeople. You’re going to learn at least a bit of electrical engineering in the process of building this, and nobody’s going to hold your hand while you do it.
Gotcha! I don’t know anything about Ardunios so I’ll check them out! I built my drone with soldering so not too worried about that. Thanks for the tips, I guess we’ll see what I can do
You’re diving into a deep rabbit hole here, but it’ll be a great learning experience! Best of luck!
