DIY Cable Cam for GoPro | DIY Gadget for shooting movies

Cable Cam, also know with others name Wire Cam, Cablecam or Cable-Cam, is a device that we can attach our camera on it and control with remote/smartphone. The CableCam run on a cable (or a pair/three cable in parallel) to help us have a beautiful video shot with movement effect.
In this video, I show you how to make a Cable Cam at home from old DVD/CD Drive and Arduino Nano. It only cost 5$.
Components:
- 2x DVD/CD ROM Drive for PC
- Arduino Nano
- Bluetooth Module HC-05
- L298N Module
- 2x 3.7v Lipo battery

GENIUS BRO !!!!!

[@zaidmankar4145]

HOW MANY TYPE OF MOTOR CAN WE USE TO MAKE IT MORE POWERFULL

[@zaidmankar126]

where we can get the code

[@elangene]

excellent

[@Goehrling]

What is the size of the two resistors?

[@Goehrling]

I think 2k and 1k

Can we use just ESP12 MINI V2 and L298N?

[@TheHLab]

@@drakulla19 This design and App for Bluetooth module, ESP12 Mini i think only have WiFi

[@drakulla19]

@@TheHLab I will try with raspberrypi zero (wifi+Bluetooth) + l298n :D
