*: Although we are currently using a 3D-printed gondola as a mount, anything else that can hold the components together can be used.
**: velcros are used to hold the mount to the blimp. If you don't have it, normal tape would suffice but it will be a little bit messier
***: The total mass of all components weight approximately around 120g. Therefore, a blimp that can carry that much weight is needed. For the Amazon product listed, you need two of them for the blimp to float in the air.

4. Connect the vertical motor to M1, right motor to M2, and left motor to M4.
5. The motor itself can be connected differently if you are using a different vehicle. If so, changes might be needed for the motor controller code section.
**Other Components Needed**
1. Adafruit Neopixel LED Panel (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2945)
2. Adafruit Radio FeatherWing (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3230)
Note: The components listed above are optional. They are also stackable with the ESP32. Therefore, no extra wiring is needed
