ESP32 Forum

Hi all,

I have just bought my first ESP32 CAM board to have a play with, Primarily I wanted to have a go with the CameraWebserver, however I cant seem to correctly identify which board I have I have tried the wrover, AI_Thinker and a couple of the others.

the board I have is:



currently when I try to upload I get the error:

'A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header' it could be something else but I need to eliminate incorrect board version first

Thanks

Hi Bugs,
Are you using Arduino?
You must select Ai-Thinker ESP32 CAM ( or other model, if it is different)
See this tutorial:
