-Plugin your ep32-s3 with ANOTHER usb cable using the port labeled "UART" on the pcb - this is where mavlink and debug is coming/going, and you can connect to this with mavproxy, etc.

|
-Optional:
|
|
|
-Plugin your ep32-s3 into a flight-controller UART using pins RX(17)/TX(18)/GND on the pcb - this listens for mavlink from an autopilot, and expects to find REMOTE_ID* packets in the mavlink stream, and it broadcast/s this information from the drone as bluetooth/wifi on 2.4ghz in a manner that can be received by Android mobile phone App [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.opendroneid.android_osm] and hopefully other open-drone-id compliant receivers.

-Optional:

-Plugin your ep32-s3 into a flight-controller CAN port by wiring a standard CAN Tranciever (such as VP231 or similar) to pins 47(tx),38(rx),GND on the pcb.

-Open the test 'remote-id' example from id_open eg:
|
|
|
-Arduino IDE -> File Menu -> Examples ->[scroll] Examples from Custom Libraries -> id_open -> random_flight
|
|
|
-... and then flash it to your ESP32-S3 like the above instructions. It does not support mavlink or CAN etc, but it will start emitting drone and location info immediately and simply.
