  STM32/ESP32/ESP8285-based High-Performance Radio Link for RC applications

  

Project mention: Drone Flying 101 – An Interactive Tutorial for Beginners | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-23

Ever since ELRS 3 came out, I haven't met many people that argue that Crossfire is a superior radio link. The fact that ELRS 2.4GHz has gotten to 100KM and even now ELRS 900MHz RX's and TX's are widely available still gives that option, too. The smaller antennas for 2.4GHz are so much more convenient, too.

Also, ELRS has modes to go to higher refresh rates than crossfire in 900MHz (200Hz vs 150Hz for crossfire). ELRS is also being [rapidly developed](https://github.com/ExpressLRS/ExpressLRS/releases/), whereas crossfire (or TBS in general) has barely done anything.

And ELRS is cheaper (as it's open source) because of multiple hardware vendors and is more widely available as TBS has always had rather poor inventory management (their site now shows as unavailable for many components).

Don't get me wrong, crossfire was an absolute game changer when it came out, but TBS has really stagnated over the past few years.

• IRremoteESP8266

  19 2,795 5.4 C++

  Infrared remote library for ESP8266/ESP32: send and receive infrared signals with multiple protocols. Based on: https://github.com/shirriff/Arduino-IRremote/

Project mention: Ask HN: What have you built with ESPHome, ESP8266 or similar hardware | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-27

Not built, but designed a widget with a rest api on a wifi endpoint on one side and an IR led on the other to automate my dumb a/c unit. There was already a library to emulate the exact IR remote control,

• beefweb

  4 231 7.0 C++

  Web interface plugin for DeaDBeeF and foobar2000 players

Project mention: Best way to control foobar2000 version 2.0 via tablet/phone | /r/foobar2000 | 2023-06-04

I'm currently using Beefweb. I'm somewhat happy with it control-wise, but a serious limitation is that it has no library management. When I have a bit of free time (and will), I might explore if it's possible to bring Facets-like library structure to a remote interface.
