Let’s chat on the forum at forum.dronebotworkshop.com
Here is a selection of 11 projects and tutorials that I created in 2019, there should be something for everyone here.
There are lessons on to making things move, big things and small things.
There are projects to build power supplies to power up your experiments.
There are tutorials on using displays and building dynamic user interfaces.
I looked at a really intelligent microcomputer (I think it’s smarter than I am).
Rotary Encoders, Microwave Sensors, and Electronic Levels round things out.
Here is what I cover, including a link to the full videos.

I’ll also let you know what I’m planning for 2020, and tell you about the new way to suggest content so I can make the videos you want to see.
And, finally, I’ll show off the beautiful TH-cam Silver Play Button that you helped me earn - thank you very, very much!
Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and productive New Year!

I don't have the feeling the quality of you videos has suffered. I really enjoy them all.
I'm glad to hear that, I guess I''m my biggest critic. I just feel that if I hadn't been so rushed at time that I might have done a bit better. But it is very nice of you to say, thank you Robin and all the best for a sensational 2020!
@@Dronebotworkshop As a tradesman I can tell you that the better you get, the more critical you become of your own work. That sounds self defeating, and it is: if you concentrate too much on the negativity the internal feedback becomes a virtual ground ~0 volts (op amp reference LOL). You have to balance this by recognising when you do quality work regardless of how adversity makes it difficult or reduces your output. I don't think I've ever seen a video from you that was anything but well thought out and intelligently presented.
If I could humbly add one suggestion for editing? You are far better at this than I am so I can only hope this is taken in the good will that it is intended... Do the jump cuts to the other camera *before* you turn to face that other camera. People are conditioned to see a presenter follow a camera jump a split second after it occurs (ie television mostly), not the other way around. When you turn away from the camera before the cut it's... disconcerting. It makes me wonder if you actually *are* switching camera feeds to one single storage source and the delay is actually video buffering.
I'm wishing you and your family a very happy and prosperous new year!
@@Dronebotworkshop Thanks, to you too! Keep up the good work, please.

@@Chrisamic It's actually psychologically measurable that skilled people are more critical of themselves and underestimate their competence. It's known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect, and similarly, unskilled people overestimate their competence along the same curved line. It reinforces the traditional adages of "Ignorance is bliss" or "The more you learn, the less you know." Generally, though, just have more confidence in yourself when you've put so much effort into a project. There is probably someone way less competent doing a worse job and passing it off as equivalent. Cheers.
hats off for the amount of work and the quality you create!
Thank you, much appreciated!
I’ve never watched any other channel with even close the high standards of quality and details your videos have. Happy new year and looking forward for your new videos. Thanks for the great content.
I'm new to your platform. I just began watching your videos within the last few hours of 2019. You have certainly inspired me, for which I am grateful. Your content is excellent; entertaining and informative. Wishing you the best for 2020.
Couldn't even think of my career without your inspiration and lessons, really wish you the best!
That gold play bitton will surely come someday!
You are a gentleman. I appreciate your effort, care, expertise and dedication. Keep up the great work and happy new year to you.
on behalf of all the giraffes world wide I thank you for taking us seriously.. Thanks for all of your teachings and it has been a great pleasure to watch and learn from you in this past year.. I look forward to next year.. I would tell all my friends but most of them don't even own a computer.. and can't quite figure out what I am doing with all this new fangled stuff.. I will be entering my 7th decade in 2 years so I am right behind you brother.. gosh what we have seen.. But I think of my grandfather who was born in the late 1800's and live until 1975.. now that would have been a change.. well take care carry on and we will see you in the future...
Happy New Year!! You are your own worst critic. No problem with you pacing the release of your videos. They are worth the wait!!
Thank you so much for the videos. They are really well made and one can feel how much effort you put in them
Happy New Year to you too Bill! and all the very best for 2020.
"Quality vs. Quantity hey!? - That's setting the bar pretty high, your content is already Bloody Good! The pursuit for self betterment IS a noble path to follow though, so thanks for sharing it with us.
Either I missed the videos where the quality dropped, or you under-rate your work. I don't think I missed any...
Happy new year, and thanks for all your effort.
P.S. You're a bit older than me, and have more hair, so be grateful for small mercies. ;o)
Its my 41st bday today - I just *got up, walked over* when you said its your 7th decade... you look great; I hope to have the energy and be half as creative as you when I'm 70!!! Great for you, rockstar!!! I love the channel; please keep helping us LEARN. Love it - I'm going to use the keypad, well some of your suggestions, on a project shortly. THANK YOU.
The year-in-review was fun. Even though I've seen most of those videos before, they were worth reviewing. And glad to hear about your plans for 2020. Looking forward to them.
Great year for you, 2019. Your quality, in comparison to other similar channels, is outstanding. I will be transitioning to retirement over the next few years and plan to do all of your excellent projects that you have shared. I hope you have a great year. Subscriber, and will continue watching this year.
talking of being old ,at 70 makes this 86 year old a relic; I was worked as a design eng' in the 50-70 did lots of projects with logic chips.im afraid these micro controllers are something else ,find them difficult for this old head, the videos are a terrific help getting there slow but sure much appreciated
Really enjoyed 2019 vids, thank you.
Jetson nano at around £100 is outside of my price range.
Still I can dream.
Happy New Year to you and yours
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with such great quality, I'm very great full for your kindness Maestro!
Vids are always great quality. Thanks for making these. These are some of the more succinct and clear Arduino vids on TH-cam. Thank you!
Great year of teaching! Enjoy each of you lessons and showing my grandson your videos. He is learning from your videos and I couldn’t be more excited!! Your the best! We both wish you a Berry Happy New Year with great health and success! And good Pi!!
Also we will try to advance your subscribers. All of us in our family will try and introduce you to their world of learning from your teachings. You are interring into a new phase of your life in a creative roll of brining an education in electronics and IoT to thousands and thousands of new students. Immortal you’ve become! Enjoy!
Congratulations! 😄 And a happy new year! Keep up the good work Bill!🙂
Happy New Year! I enjoy your videos, I understand you may feel that your video quality may have suffered however I appreciate that you have take this on and are able to produce, edit and publish these informative videos. You reveal your knowledge and passion about electronics. I look forward to seeing more of your videos in the coming year.
Happy New Year to you as well. Thank you for making great videos, and keep up the good work.
Happy New Year my good friend.
I am really looking forward to a great 2020!!!
Have fun and so many thanks for your videos, they are just fantastic.
The quality of video and your way of explaining is so good. All the best for the new year
Dear Bill, I wish you and your family, from Bogotá-Colombia, a very happy New Year too! You are a young man in your seventies! I appreciate highly your marvelous educational videos.
Thanks for your hard work and congratulations on ya play button!
Happy new year Bill, Thanks for all you do for us! Much appreciated. I was inspired by you last fall and my "workshop" in the basement is coming along great. Just added an oscilloscope and signal generator to the tools. Got my first raspberry Pi 4 B. Looking forward to going through your tutorials. We're getting serious here in the workshop,,,,,,, thanks to you.
Regards,
Bill
Happy new year Bill. I wish you health and prosperity. Keep on the nice work and effort you have.
A Video Table of Contents - COOL. Very nice gift.

love your work! im learning a lot with you, thank you very much! greetings from brazil/holland!
Happy New year Mr Dronebot👍
Your videos are great, the quality is awesome, your very detailed in all your teaching especially compared to others that do not explain a thing and there code does not even verify. I thank you
You are gold and not old.. keep up your detail videos as always..
Happy new year DroneBot🎊🎊🎊
you do a really good work, really thank you !
Your videos are just perfect ! But by all means, take time for yourself to tinker happily without having to think of camera angles and that kind of stuff.
❤️
You are the most interesting dude in the whole internet.... It is as if you are reading my mind when you pick the subjects of your videos... I don't watch them more often because of the slow pace of them and I know that is a feature.
Thanks for your awesome tutorial, I want to suggest if your able to do live streams will be great.
Happy new year
ive learned a lot on your arduino lessons! thank you sir!
and, how humble of you to explain even the advantages in subscribing on your channel! what can i say....YOU GOT ME! :)
looking forward for more great DIY projects from you! cheers!
"I'm now an old man" - I wouldn't watching otherwise.
Super vidéo, Thank you
Other than your videos 2020 has really sucked so far. I am hoping to get through it by building some cool projects though. Please keep the awesome videos coming!
You are the best thank you from the Heart . I wish you too a very happy healthy new year, from Germmany with love.
Thanks for your good video.
I am waiting to watch your video about IOT, specially about esp8266, nodemcu, gsm and etc.
Thanks for all things.
Happy New year
Best channel on TH-cam. My go to resource.
Hi, Bill, your videos are exemplary I have seen no problem with your content I think you do a very good job with your channel and love it I was most surprised at your remark that you are 70 so all I can say tou you is keep going love it all, Thanks Bob in the UK
Have a great new year Bill.
Wauuuuu i really enjoy this Channel , had electronic in School , but been away for many years , but the interest went back , and wauuuu this is a super Channel , 👍for find this , so many information and great video , great work
Please don't apologize for quality of your videos last year - they are head and shoulders above almost anything else on TH-cam for electronics instruction! I'm so excited to see what else you have in store for us in 2020... & maybe you can satisfy our curiosity a little bit by sharing some of your background - I'm betting you were a teacher for some years before you started this wonderful channel? Happy New Year to you too!!
Actually you'd loose that bet, I have always WANTED to be a teacher but never was. Happy New Year!
Your still teaching me thanks for the video's! 🍎 for your desk.
Happy New Year 2024 😃
happy new year
Fantastic Channel.
A wonderful site!
7th decade!!! Man you look great. I thought you were in your 50s.
i like your work shops projects
Like always You doing good job. Wish You good Year. Ps. Silver plate looks great ;)
I wish you a great year as well. The plate looks great on my wall and, optimist that I am, I saved room for the gold one!
Nice video ! Happy New Year !
Waw, I tought we were more or less the same age... late 50ties... ! You look great !
I will tell 855,00 friends, for sure. Thanks again for a great video.
I can’t wait to get into the new year and see your videos. Also you look amazing for your age! Also I have been wondering where I can purchase similar parts organizers to the ones you use with the large drawers. I have been looking to buy some for my shop
Yes! Someone who understands decades.
The Giraffe line was the funniest thing you have said so far. I was rolling on the floor
Nice projects
Belated happy birthday to you Sir... God bless you with happiness and healthy life ahead and may you bless us with your teachings forever 🙌...you are Mr. Miyagi of microcontroller world.... 😁
"just tell 855,000 of your friends" HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!! I love it!
Happy New year 2🎆2🎇
And a Happy New Year to you too Sergio!
Thank you for all your detailed Explanation.
Could you plz advice, is SPC SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission) Protocol Communication possible with Arduino Boards.
Fun hobby .
I enjoy your videos, even if I don't fully understand them all!
One suggestion is to edit the video when you look at the other camera. I don't know if anyone has mentioned it but you can tell when you are going to change to the other camera as your eyes lead to the new camera!
Damn your are 70? Keep up the good work. I was glad to see your where focusing more on the esp32.
And belated happy birthday.
Thanks!
I like seeing you wearing ground protection. I had 2 HDD drives die pre-maturely under normal conditions, on computers built by a local OEM dealer. I have also know others who have had their various pieces of hardware die also under normal conditions. While in school for Refrigeration I had a classmate who was a supervisor at that Computer store, out of curiosity I asked him if they used any ground protection while building PCs. He didn't even know what a grounding wrist or heel strap was. When I explained he laughed at the idea. I used to build my own PC's with their hardware but the last 2 I had to let them build since they were built on an employee computer financing program. For some reason they also open every OEM product box and static bag to inspect each piece presumably without ground protection, then sell them as new.
3 Things:
1: You said that you feel like the new decade doesn't start till 2021 bc there was no year zero, but as a technologist I figured you would begin enumeration with a 0 (Zero)
2: You're 70??? I was thinkin late 40s, early 50s tops!
3: Awesome Channel Bud! You're a great educator! Keep the awesome content coming!!!
Can you make a video on Qwiic AS3935 Lightning Detector ? Happy new year
Your tidy Workshop puts me to shame :-} Also, I like your catchy sig tune - is that your own composition? Is there a longer version available? Thanks for the videos, & all the best for 2020!
The theme music is called "Clear Day" and was composed by a French artist named Benjamin Tissot at bensound.com. I purchased a license to use it without having to give attribution, but I certainly don't mind. The intro is just part of it, but I've occasionally used other parts of it in other videos.
Best to you as well for 2020!
I love your projects. But the lack of materials in our country limited me. However I'm try to learn more from your videos.
Keep up the good work. Us 7th decade people have to stick together.
One year later, 300k+ subs. You more than doubled it. I guess 1-2 years from now you will get the Golden Award:)
Happy new year, greeting from the UK. May I ask a question here? Firstly, I started learning C a long long time ago in a different galaxy. I have just started, in retirement, to mess with Pi & Arduino. Arduino 'C' seems to be different/supplemented from "standard C++"? As an example I looked up 'pinMode' in my 'O'Reilly Practical C++ Programming by Steve Oualline 1997 edition' but there is no reference to it, so I figured that Arduino had added something to C. Would you care to do an explanatory video on this? Thanks
Make a arduino video with a gps that tells km/h Also a rpm gauge!!,keep it up your videos are perfect!!!
It doesn't matter that there will be less frequent new videos because i have tons of old videos I have yet to watch and learn from.
You Will get that Gold plate for sure😂👍have a Nice Day
Sir I have a doubt sir about microprocessor and microcontroller in these which is best for humanoid robots and the parts and mechanism used in youtube originals channel
Happy New Year Bill. Question; at 25:21 you unplugged a single USB cable which you described as your keyboard and mouse. I'm slightly intreagued. Is that a composite device or can a separate keyboard and mouse share the one USB port? I hope that my question is sufficiently clear, but my object is USB port saving - in my case on a Raspberry Pi.
Perhaps this is something that might be addressed as a feature in an upcoming video if it is felt worthy of the wider audience?
Regards, Ian_
do you do anything with Electro-Active Polymers - artificial muscle
How about an off subject question? I have some led’s that don’t have any info on them. I know you can tell plus and minus but what about voltage and if you need a resistor and what value.
He looks like some one is pointing a gun at him behinde the camera. Great work keep it up.
whats that blue thing(band) on your hand
Fortran vs C. In C, this is the start of a new decade. In Fortran its next year.
Where did you find year zero?
