Description
This 6-DOF RC Rover is an integrated robotic platform that combines a mobile chassis with a functional six-axis arm. Controlled by Arduino Mega and Uno via a wireless nRF24L01 module, the system allows for remote movement and object manipulation using various servo motors. The design is optimized for 3D printing and provides a practical foundation for anyone interested in learning about wireless communication, mechanical assembly, and basic robotics.
