@ibddoctor There is an excellent article somewhere on doing this. It mostly takes some work on the command line. The main thing is I noticed is that that you need to install libssl-dev using apt in your ubuntu droplet along with r-base and RStudio. A lot of packages won't work without it.

@ibddoctor Also, adding the CRAN repo to the list of your apt repositories is important, since you won't get the latest version of R if you don't.
