About the Hardware v2 PCB

Hardware v2 is an open source ESP32 PCB design by rmingon, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 40 × 78 mm, with 54 components from 25 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ESP32-WROOM-32, from the ESP32 family. Other key parts include the TPS562200, RFM95W-868S2, BMP280, CH340C and BMI160. By type, the board carries 17 capacitors, 15 resistors, 8 connectors, 7 ICs, 3 diodes and 2 inductors.

It belongs with the iot & wireless, rf & radio and sensors designs in this gallery, and the repository also holds 1 earlier revision of it.

From the project

A 3D-printable flying-wing airframe with a custom ESP32 flight computer—open hardware you can solder, screw together, and fly.

This repository contains hardware designs, documentation, and code for an aircraft project.

Falcon-Edge is a compact flying-wing airframe with a custom ESP32-based flight computer. This repo contains the KiCad hardware project and 3D CAD needed to print, assemble, and fly your own Falcon-Edge.

- 3D-printable center pod with top and bottom service hatches for fast access. - Designed for clean airflow over the pod; embedded antenna keep-out zone. - Uses off-the-shelf wing cores/foam or your own prints.

Hardware v2: common questions

What microcontroller does the Hardware v2 use?

The Hardware v2 is built around the ESP32-WROOM-32, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Hardware v2 PCB?

The Hardware v2 measures 40 × 78 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Hardware v2?

54 components, from 25 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Hardware v2 design files?

From the rmingon/Falcon-Edge repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Hardware v2 design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with rmingon. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Hardware v2 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
