This is a fully functional RC excavator that takes advantage of the wonderous capabilties of 3D printers. It uses micro robotic development parts such as an ESP32 development board that can be programmed via the Arduino IDE, this model specifically can then be connected to a ps3 controller.

If you'd like to support the channel and fund the development of these mini DIY RC projects consider becoming a ProfessorBoots Workshop member which will give you access to the PCB files for this model as well as a step by step guide on sourcing the PCB's/Electronics and uploading the code to the development board. As well as pretty much everything else you may need to know in order to build your very own 3D Printed Mini Excavator.
