<![CDATA[PlatformIO Projects for BugC and Joystick + 2 M5StickCs using ESP-Now]]>Hi! This is my first post in this community.
I submitted a pair of projects to GitHub for controlling the BugC hat for the M5StickC with another M5StickC with a Joystick hat using ESP-Now. This turns out to be a very nice remote control protocol, and has longer range and easier setup than WiFi.
PlatformIO projects are similar to Arduino, if you use Arduino but not PlatformIO, you can easily convert the code.

Being new to UIFLOW, is there a way to get that code into UIFlOW to play with it?

Is there a .m5f I’m not seeing?

Thanks,
Paul

This would allow multiple pairs to race or fight each other. Far easier to compile, no Secrets to set up, etc.
I have more plans to make pairing easier. Once I'm satisfied I'll add some pictures or videos.

Great! Would love to see a demo video of it in action.
