First steps
To set up your Flipper Zero and the module firmware, simply follow https://flipper.ried.cl/webinstaller.
This will give you access to the following features:
- The Marauder firmware, which is a portable penetration testing tool created for WiFi and Bluetooth analysis. The firmware also includes Micro-SD functionality, allowing you to dump pcap files
- Camera (2MP jpeg) and flashlight, accessed through the ESP32CAM Marauder app
- Gameboy-camera style (low res 128x64 bmp) with preview on the Flipper Zero
- Nanny cam (remote WiFi AP access to the camera stream)
- Morse flasher (use the flashlight to transmit morse)
- QR code reader
- Motion detection
- External radio (w/CC1101 module)
Depending on your Flipper Zero firmware, you also need other .fap apps for:
- NRF24 for sniffing and mousejacking (w/nrf24l01 module)
- Other sensors on v1 of the board (i.e. temperature/humidity/distance/movement/knock/buttons/etc)
- Extended radio capabilities on v2 of the board with cc1101 module (switch from internal to external radio in your flipper's SubGHz settings menu)

If the camera is not connected, you should lift the plastic tab on the ESP32CAM board, and slide the camera flat cable as show below:
You can use the electronic components as a guide how deep you should set the connector before pressing the plastic tab down to lock the camera in place:
It is a good idea to add a piece of double side tape and secure the camera so it does not dangle.
If you ever need to upload the firmware to the ESP32, you need to remember that you need to short IO0 and GND while pressing the reset button that is on the back of the ESP32. An easy way to do this is to place a pen with a metallic tip between those pins, or use the pcb connections:
