## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE09944:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE09944:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

**M5Stamp Fly** is a programmable open-source quadcopter kit, featuring the **StampS3** as the main controller. It integrates a **BMI270** 6-axis gyroscope and a **BMM150** 3-axis magnetometer for attitude and direction detection. The BMP280 barometric pressure sensor and two VL53L3 distance sensors enable precise altitude hold and obstacle avoidance. The PMW3901MB-TXQT optical flow sensor provides displacement detection. The kit includes a buzzer, a reset button, and **WS2812** RGB LEDs for interaction and status indication. It is equipped with a 300mAh high-voltage battery and four high-speed coreless motors. The PCB features an **INA3221AIRGVR** for real-time current/voltage monitoring and has two Grove connectors for additional sensors and peripherals. Preloaded with debugging firmware, the Stamp Fly can be controlled using an Atom Joystick via the **ESP-NOW** protocol. Users can choose between automatic and manual modes, allowing for easy implementation of functions like precise hovering and flips. The firmware source code is **open-source**, making the product suitable for education, research, and various drone development projects.
