There is an unending dispute about which library should you use when writing an application for STM32 microcontroller. Actually, there are at least three choices which you should consider. In this post I will highlight the advantages and disadvantages of each approach which can be considered when writing software for ST microcontrollers.

433MHz receiver and transmitter
Wireless transmission is getting more and more popular. I will try to show you how does it work using coupled receiver and transmitter which are both working on the same frequency (433MHz).
A small operating system
There are many operating systems: Linux, Windows, iOS,… But there are a few which can work in real time like Linux Xenomai. However, there are very little which can fit a microcontroller. One of them is a FreeRTOS. There are some variations of the FreeRTOS which can handle different conditions and requirements.
This blog post is not about such operating system, however…
A new controller for QuadroCopter
Some time ago I have presented my new design a mini QuadroCopter. This new design required a controller but tailored to the size of the mini UAV.
Fully 3D printed mini QuadroCopter
After some successful tests of my QuadroCopter I decided to make a step forward. The goal is to make a smaller UAV which would be able to fly around a house. Carried by this vision I designed a CAD model of the mini QuadroCopter.
QuadroCopter test flight
It was quite a long time since I have written something about my QuadroCopter. Well the time has come. I have prepared a shot movie to which I invite you to watch.
Read more for some technicalities about the UAV.
RepRap losing steps
Some time ago I have written about my RepRap clogging problem. When I have switched to PLA I had some problems with extruder jams. It was solved by switching to different extruder and adding a fan for active cooling.
Extruder’s jam in RepRap 3D printer
Some time ago I have decided to switch from the ABS filament to the PLA filament. This is how it starts 🙂 …
Domain change
As I mentioned some time ago there is a slight domain change. To get to this page you should use blog.domski.pl address. It is working for some time now. The old address domski.pl will redirect you to my professional site.
Making a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) using toner transfer method
The purpose of this article is to introduce you to one of the methods of making PCB which is the toner transfer method.
Servo
A model servo or servomechanism isn’t anything more than just a small DC motor with a transmission and some electronics.
Tunnelling Internet traffic via external server
There are situations when we would like to encrypt our Internet traffic. One of those situation is when we use a public computer. Those computers are vulnerable to sniffing. This article will shed some light on this problem.

A slight domain change
In a few weeks there will be a slight change in domain.
To get to this blog please use blog.domski.pl.
Using domski.pl domain address will get you to my professional website. It is a small change and it won’t impact any of your activity.
