If you have worked with RC planes, Drones or any other hobby grade DIY aerial vehicles, then you would probably know that controlling these vehicles from land needs skill and practice. The operator ...

Description: This time I'm going to teach you how to make an rc airplane very easy, but you'll need some time and dedication ...

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.

The code compiles on Arduino IDE 1.8.x or higher with board set to Arduino Uno. The transmitter code is in mtx (master mcu) and stx (slave mcu) folders. The receiver mcu code is in the rx folder. No ...

I wanted to convert a foam glider into an RC plane. As the plane is rather small I needed to create a small lightweight receiver and decided to use the ATtiny44. With the latest update the PPM decoder ...

This hack’s old as dirt to be sure, but new to us and a great accomplishment. The plane above, which is meant to fly without an operator, has been given RC control thanks to parts from that little car ...

A radio control system for drones is vulnerable to remote takeover, thanks to a weakness in the mechanism that binds transmitter and receiver. The popular protocol for radio controlled (RC) aircraft ...
