This is a FPV Drone Racing Gate built specifically for TinyWhoops. It features a built in timing function so you can track your lap times as you race your TinyWhoop, a bright LED Strip to make it easy to navigate, touchscreen display, wireless connection for external monitors, and much much more. I hope this levels up your TinyWhoop game.

Love the direction this gate is going! I think itll be very successful when you can get it to work seamlessly with tracking multiple racers times seamlessly. Also, may I suggest putting mounting holes in your base? Such as we see in chargers for power tool chargers? Then we could mount it on walls or ceilings! 😊

Well done John. Mind BLOWN!!!

@professorboots Год назад

Haha thank you! Thought you might get a kick out of it.

@Harel-DIY Год назад

well done! keep posting those cool projects! I'll make sure to take a shot at building it.

@professorboots Год назад

Will do! I wish you the best of luck let me know if you have any questions!

@sticky_ricebowl Год назад

dang i literally just was thinking about a whoop racegate. Thanks for sharing man! cant wait to build one myself!

@professorboots Год назад

Yeah it’s one of those things that just seems so right haha. And no problem my pleasure!!

@elonmoishkrl8981 Год назад

Ayyy this is a great v2 of the first one!

@professorboots Год назад

Eyyyyy, Thank you it was pretty fun to build and mess with!

Dope as hell! Keep on keepin on.

Great project!! I also tried building a gate with ultrasonic sensors but they were not reliable or fast enough. I was using a raspberry pi. Switched to a laser sensor and it was much more reliable, but mounting it it's harder as laser and sensor need to be perfectly aligned. I have it on my todo list.. As a solution for multiple pilots, I know of a couple products that use the VTX frequency to differentiate the pilots.

@professorboots Год назад

Thank you! I think the laser would be a great alternative but could definitely see mounting as an issue. I’m looking into alternative methods right now

@nyder1331 10 месяцев назад

the screen should be covered fully that you can't see anything other than pixels ,it will look better and it is the right method that i think you can easly find in screen datasheet

You could now connect an FC between your 5.8 GHz RX module and goggle video in, and have the OSD chip overlay lap times on top of your video feed. I did some BetaFlight hacking at some point, let me know if this is interesting to you

@Wildest_Wahoo Месяц назад

Are you still building this? I need one! 😅

@ninohelf 7 месяцев назад

Any change your doing a multi pilot version?

What quadcopters are you flying in the video

@professorboots 10 месяцев назад

Mainly a 1s flywoo firefly nano baby, and a mobula6

@NicolaiVdS Год назад

since its a gate why not use nfc tags (or any other type of tag) to fergo the ultra sonic detectors ? i think you can create some sort of a scanner in the tube and have each racer its own tag ;)

@NicolaiVdS Год назад

surplus: i saw each lap is the total amount of second, would be nicer to know how long each lap took

@professorboots Год назад

Thank you so much for the feedback! I’ll definitely look into the nfc tags, sounds promising!

@mikelbcn91 Год назад

Interesting, but I have my doubts that the reader is fast enough or that you can pass at a distance from the reader?

@joegroom3195 10 месяцев назад

NFC is typically short range and gets expensive to go long range. Same with RFID. I was thinking a barcode scanner. It'd be a simple barcode sticker on the whoop, so light weight. Nothing fancy, doesn't need to be a 2D barcode. The ESP32 supports a camera and there's code to read barcodes. The question is, would the camera and recognition be fast enough to capture the barcode as it's flying through.

Kinda sucks that you killed the links in the description result in 404... oh well.

What happen to the pre order link? Am i too late?

I ended up taking it down because I realized there was still some things I wanted to figure out before selling it. But everything is open source of you feel like building it

Just tried to pre-order your gate and the link appears to be broken. Can you look into that? AND....tried the Discord link, but it had expired. So so frustrated!!

@professorboots 9 месяцев назад

I’m so sorry, one of my goals this week is to go through and update all the links.
