This is a 3D Printed RC SkidSteer that has an added FPV camera, this allows the driver to sit front seat and really embrace the RC FPV experience. Everything is 3D printed and opensource.

If I had to explain to my family, why I enjoyed so much watching a grown ass guy, driving a miniature skid steer with FPV, loading tiny plastic pallets onto a small plastic warehouse shelf, they won’t understand 😂 Thanks for the great content. Looking forward to the dump truck and shenanigans you come with. (Still hoping the kit is available for outside the US at some point 🥲)

OK, so the next step is internet control of the MiniSkidi. Person A and person B set up a mini-warehouse with a MiniSkidi. Person A controls the MiniSkidi in person B's warehouse and vice versa. Then you run a challenge to see who can stack all the pallets first. The game goes national, then global. You retire rich, after figuring out to monetize this game. Following that, develop some AI using a vision system to have the MiniSkidi stack the pallets.

If a server hosted a TCP socket server and the machines connected to it, with different remotes also connected to the server, you could just run a server out on the web somewhere and have people connect to it to join the game

Your controls are very similar to those of the John Deere Skiddy I use at work. Left hand joystick is your movement control (forward, back, turn) and right hand joystick is bucket control. Pulling back raises the boom, left tilts the bucket/forks up, right dumps, and forward lowers the boom. Pretty sweet build for sure

I would love it if you got a pair of HDZero goggles and used the head tracking to add pan/tilt functionality to the camera system! That would be amazing. There is probably a better system than pan/tilt, and other goggles probably support head tracking too, but I think you get the suggestion here.

I just got my electronics kit in the mail yesterday and I"m currently printing the parts! Definitely going to make the dump truck too. I am fairly new to microcontrollers/electronics and can do basic coding (mostly because I took a few classes in college years ago). I wouldn't mind a video walk through of the code, especially focused on the web page hosting and interaction. I've browsed your source code file and get lost tying to fully understand the web socket portion.

@professorboots 8 ай бұрын

I will definitely keep that in mind when looking at videos to make in the future. The code would definitely be hard to grasp without a deeper explanation especially the web socket portion as it’s been arduino-ized haha.

I need a tiny skid steer. Very very cool. I'd like something relatively realistic, but not $1200 and so hyper realistic is only works in actual scale scenarios..... (RC4WD/TUCAN HOBBY). Ive been making genaric FPV systems from this cheap IOS cams forever, and some actually are pretty good. Spectrum/fatshark USED TO offer a nicer version that you could get x2/$40 but they are discontinued.

Someone needs to fork the MiniSkidi code and add PS3 and PS4 controller support to it. That someone might be me if I get a wild hair up my ass in the next few weeks, but if someone wants to beat me to it I won't complain. Edit: Didn't realize that you are "Mr. MiniSkidi", you should add controller support or are you cool with me actually forking the code?

Haha, it’s definitely on the bucket list of things I’d like to add. Though if your wild hair comes to life I have no problem with your forking it.
