ResQ
About the ResQ PCB
ResQ is an open source ESP8266 PCB design by MKme, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 31.5 × 36.1 mm, with 9 components from 9 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the WeMos, from the ESP8266 family. By type, the board carries 6 connectors, 1 IC and 1 resistor.
It belongs with the rf & radio designs in this gallery.
From the project
Open Source Search and Rescue Tool for ground tracking and air tracking cell phone signatures using Espressif ESp32 and ESP8266 hardware.
Here we have a variety of selections for your ResQ build.
- Nothing yet and hopefully don't need it :)
- I have the PCBs avaialble on my website here: http://store.mkme.org/product-category/custom/ - You can also make your own PCB under $10 at PCBWay, JLCPCB, OSHPark or other board house of your choice! Just upload the Gerbers I have provided here and you are all set!

ResQ: common questions
What microcontroller does the ResQ use?
The ResQ is built around the WeMos, from the ESP8266 family.
How big is the ResQ PCB?
The ResQ measures 31.5 × 36.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the ResQ?
9 components, from 9 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the ResQ design files?
From the MKme/ResQ repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the ResQ design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with MKme. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the ResQ without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
