ESP-ROLL - An FPV ESP32 Spherical Robot | RC Ball Bot (3D Design STL Files)

by Max_Imagination

Build your own FPV rolling robot powered by an ESP32 Camera - compact, futuristic, self-balancing, and driven like an RC car! The ESP-ROLL. This 3D-printable robot chassis/shell is designed for a spherical motion platform using two internal wheels to roll and steer the entire spherical shell. It’s based on the ESP32 platform with Arduino firmware, allowing you to control it and view FPV feed with your phone via a web interface. You’ll get a lightweight, sleek design for your spherical RC robot, using off-the-shelf components and a semi-modular structure. Whether you're building it for fun, learning, or showing off your engineering skills, this bot makes a bold statement! 🎥 Watch the full tutorial build video to see it rolling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuBfRYNQgw0 ✅ What’s Included? By purchasing this 3D model (digital product), you’ll get: ✅ High-quality STL, F3D, and DWG format files for: - Outer sphere shell you print in transparent resin with an SLA 3D printer. (If you don't have access to such 3D printer, instead order 100mm transparent plastic ornament balls from Amazon like I did). - Internal chassis and wheel hubs to print from PLA filament. - Tires and caster wheels to print from TPU filament. ✅ Carefully engineered design optimized for a PCB holding modules like the XIAO ESP32S3 Sense, micro geared motors, and other peripherals. ✅ Snap-fit and screw-based assembly for easy maintenance and installation of parts. 🔧 What You’ll Need (Not Included): - Components like motors, ESP32 board, driver IC, SMD components, battery, and screws – all listed in full with links in the YouTube video’s description. - Basic hand tools (screwdriver, soldering iron). - 3D printer or service like JLC3DP – JLC3DP.com - A PCB manufacturer for the controller and LED boards – JLCPCB - Programming tools and code – linked below the video. - Your mobile phone to control the ESP-ROLL. 💡 Estimated total build cost (excluding this design and shipping): ~$60 USD, depending on wher
