Quadcopter quadcopter;
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  quadcopter.init(motor1Pin, motor2Pin, motor3Pin, motor4Pin);
}
void loop() {
  // Set motor speeds (0-100%)
  quadcopter.setMotorSpeed(50, 50, 50, 50);
  delay(1000);
  quadcopter.setMotorSpeed(80, 80, 80, 80);
  delay(1000);
  quadcopter.setMotorSpeed(20, 20, 20, 20);
  delay(1000);
}
```

This example demonstrates how to use the quadcopter's Wi-Fi camera module with a Python script and OpenCV library to enable autonomous flight.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
from wifi import WiFi
# Connect to Wi-Fi camera module
cam = WiFi('192.168.1.100', 8080)
while True:
    # Capture image from camera
    img = cam.capture()
# Convert image to grayscale and apply thresholding
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    _, thresh = cv2.threshold(gray, 0, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY_INV + cv2.THRESH_OTSU)
# Find contours in the image
    contours, _ = cv2.findContours(thresh, cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
# Iterate through contours and draw bounding rectangles
    for contour in contours:
        x, y, w, h = cv2.boundingRect(contour)
        cv2.rectangle(img, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
# Display output
    cv2.imshow('Image', img)
    cv2.waitKey(1)
# Use OpenCV to determine flight direction based on contour detection
    # (implementation omitted for brevity)
```
Note: These code examples are simplified and intended to provide a basic understanding of how to use the Quadcopter DIY Drone Combo Kit. Additional programming and tuning may be required to achieve stable and autonomous flight.
