These days, it’s pretty cheap and easy to build your own little RC hovercraft. [ValRC] demonstrates just that with a hovercraft build that is surprisingly nimble, and fast to boot. …read more Continue reading Hotshot 3D Printed Hovercraft is Devastatingly Fast
A number of companies are now running remote-control rental car services, in which “teledrivers” guide an empty car out to you by remote control, and then you drive it around yourself. It’s a weird halfway step towards fully autonomous robotaxis.Contin… Continue reading Remote-control rental cars: Not as driverless as they look
Reliable Robotics has been working on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) since its founding in 2017, with a number of demonstrations for the FAA so far as it works towards getting …read more Continue reading Cessna 208B Grand Caravan Flies Under Remote Control

While some blood clots can be removed via a flexible tool that’s inserted into the affected vein or artery, others are much more difficult to reach. Those other clots could one day be treated using remote-control “millirobots” that auger their way thro… Continue reading Clot-busting “millirobots” corkscrew their way through blood vessels
If you’re buying an expensive underwater drone that you plan on using frequently, you don’t want to have to send it away every time an upgrade or repair is required. Qysea’s new FiFish E-GO was designed with that consideration in mind, as it has a uniq… Continue reading Qysea’s modular FiFish E-GO comes apart for easier underwater droning
Four years ago we told you about the MetaFly, a remote-control flapping-wing flying model insect made by French startup Bionic Bird (which did previously release a model bionic bird). Well, the company is now back with the new-and-improved X-Fly.Contin… Continue reading Bionic Bird releases upgraded X-Fly remote-control flying insect
Camera drones have made aerial photography way more accessible, but … what if there isn’t much to look at where you live? That’s where the NatureEye service comes in, as it allows you to remotely pilot a drone at conservation areas throughout the world… Continue reading NatureEye lets online users fly real drones over amazing places
While underwater ROVs (remotely operated vehicles) can be quite useful, there are some tasks that require action to be taken both underwater and on the land. That’s exactly where the amphibious Onyx Unmanned Ground Vehicle is designed to come in.Contin… Continue reading Amphibious drone tackles rough terrain on land or 50 feet underwater
Any student new to the principles of fluid dynamics will be familiar with Bernoulli’s principle and the Venturi effect, where the speed of a liquid or gas increases when the …read more Continue reading Variable-Nozzle Ducted Fan Provides Fluid Dynamics Lessons
