OpenEmbed is creating the MeshWalkie, a Meshtastic-ready LoRa handheld using the housing of a Baofeng UV-K6 radio. It features an Espressif ESP32-S3, a Seeed Studio Wio-SX1262 LoRa transceiver, and a Seeed L76K GNSS receiver, all on a custom PCB. The project aims to provide a rugged, open-source alternative to 3D-printed or expensive injection-molded handhelds.
