Researchers at Northwestern University in Illinois have demonstrated the world’s smallest remote-controlled walking robot, at just half a millimeter wide. Such tiny machines can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn and jump without hydraulics or electricity…. Continue reading Smallest-ever remote-control walking robot uses shape-memory alloy
While the GoPro Hero is still pretty much the name in actioncams, it can sometimes be fiddly to operate, plus its battery life may be too short for some uses. The new Volta is designed to address those shortcomings, combining one-handed controls with a… Continue reading GoPro Volta brings more power, remote control and a minipod to the Hero
Once the steering wheel is taken out of cars altogether, there will still need to be a way to deal with weird “edge case” situations that an autonomous AI can’t figure out. That may require human drivers to stay on standby, ready to take the wheel by r… Continue reading World-first trial puts remote-controlled passenger cars on UK roads
While wheels might seem like a foundational technology, they do have one major flaw: they typically need maintained roads in order to work. Anyone who has experience driving a Jeep …read more Continue reading Tracked RC Vehicle is (Mostly) 3D Printed
As a child, [David Windestal] already knew that a belt sander was the perfect motor for a banging radio-controlled car. Many years later, the realization of that dream is everything …read more Continue reading Boring Belt Sander Is RC Racer In Disguise
For those building their own remote controlled devices like RC boats and quadcopter drones, having a good transmitter-receiver setup is a significant factor in the eventual usability of their build. …read more Continue reading Reverse Engineering a 900 MHz RC Transmitter And Receiver
With all the futuristic technology currently at our disposal, it seems a little bizarre that most passenger vehicles are essentially the same thing that they were a century ago. Four …read more Continue reading RC Snowmobile Makes Tracks on Ice

While aerial drones have many uses, there are some situations where ground-based drones are a better choice – they certainly use less battery power. The HUUVER combines aspects of the two in one vehicle, as it features both propellers and tank-like tre… Continue reading HUUVER drone rolls along the ground and flies through the air
Back in 2020, we heard about the FiFish V6 underwater drone, which was a successor to the FiFish V3 model. Now the V6 is itself being bettered, by the new-and-improved FiFish V6 Expert.Continue ReadingCategory: Drones, TechnologyTags: Underwater drones… Continue reading FiFish V6 Expert improves on an already-improved underwater drone
