RadioMaster Pocket ELRS: The Only Transmitter You Need? (FPV.Skydive Sim to Soccer Bot)

RadioMaster Pocket ELRS Review: From FPV.Skydive Simulator to Soccer Bot Contents The Backstory Most RadioMaster Pocket reviews are written by FPV drone pilots. I’m still not one of them. I’m a mechanical engineering student at BUET. I am currently building robots that roll on the ground. My latest project? A soccer bot that needs simple, reliable […]

Wait, I Have to Write BOTH Code AND Essays?! (Roborear Blog Post #1)

Date: October 26, 2023Author: Shahrear Abedin Bhuiyan Okay. So. I made a website (Congratulations to me 🎉). Not just any website—a blog. For robotics. Which means I have voluntarily signed up to do two things that require brain power: Hi! I’m Shahrear. First-year Mechanical Engineering student at BUET. Future robotics enthusiast (okay, present robotics enthusiast, but “future”
