This is one of the best DIY videos for rc transmitter and receiver i have ever seen. I have already made this project and it works flawlessly. I am commenting now but i watched this video in August 2020 and made the project at that time only. But i watched this video even now and it’s still relevant to the time and you won’t find an easy tutorial than this. Cheers to this channel 🥂. Keep the good work up.
Excellent build as always! Really loved how you handmade the acrylic enclosure. That'll give extra confidence to all makers who watches your video but don't have expensive CNC machines.
Nice build! If you wanted to add more controls, you can save 7 bytes in your data package struct just by defining the buttons as a bit field - all you need to do is to specify the number of bits with this syntax: struct Data_Package { byte j1Button : 1, byte j2Button : 1, byte button1 : 1, byte button2 : 1, ... }
Very nice...on the top under the ground (big pin) on the voltage regulator...I recommend putting a large poly pour under it to act as a heatsink (you could even put it under that circle that has nothing in it) Incredibly nice build!!!! Great Job!!!!
Я шокирован Вашими классными проектами ! Всё на очень высоком уровне ! Подписался ! + Лайк ! I am shocked by your cool projects! Everything is at a very high level! Signed up! + Like!
I stopped to look at this video seeing how cool the setup looked. The whole setup video was fantastic. I'll definitely try to make this. Keep making such fun projects.
WHAAA!?!?! Where was this at the beginning of December when I started sourcing and designing my own transmitter over my holiday break? I have basically ended up with the exact same hardware minus the MCU. I will be taking a bunch of inspiration from this one. Thank you very much
hi, i order your pcb design from jlcpcb, and when i recieve the pcb, im so happy beacause the quality and design is good. and i like your all projects :) and maybe my next project is your diy camera slider :) thank you very much for sharing this awsome project. greeting from philippines. :)
@@johnrobertsabido4426 download mo yung gerber file nya tapos punta ka jlcpcb website, tapos mag register kalang, pagnaka register kana, click mo yung quote now may makikita kadon na ADD YOUR GERBER FILE, upload molang gerber nya, yun nayun. tapos save to cart mona. tapos lagay mona mga info na kailangan tulad ng adress mo etc.
Great video. Thank you so much for providing the code, you just saved me a week of attempting to kludge something together. Just getting into Arduino this year, and the whole ecosystem is just making this so much fun. Currently working on a remote control nerf gun on treads with my 9 year old. Great video!
Your projects are always fantastic. I really enjoy them and always learn something new when you explain your code. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Any thoughts on adding an small I2c OLED display to the controller in a future version?
Thank you! Well to be honest no, I don't think I will do that. What I thought was connecting a LED for indicating the battery level or/and the connection status.
@@HowToMechatronics HII SIR THIS PROJECT IS AWSOME I HAVE ONE DOUBT , I WANT CONTROL TWO SERVO MOTOR WITH ONE JOYSTICK FROM TRANSMITTER FOR RC PLANE FLAPS CONTROL , PLEASE HELP ME SIR
heads up to anyone that is actually building this... -the parts list does not have ALL the parts -the toggle switches are not the right kind -and there is a 99% chance that you will have to redo the PCB board because the arduino pro mini does not have the right locations of pins(even though he mentions it, you might miss it) anyways good video, and I really love how easy these tutorials are to follow
@@GunSmoker we are talking about Receiver schematics and Gerber files too .. bro.. If u HV those details plz share here..will appreciate You if u do the same ..
Thanks for this tutorial - I made first prototype of my transmitter based on this tutorial. I want use this basics for my own remote controller. Thanks for sharing your knowledge !
I just stumbled across your videos, and I'm really impressed! This is the first time in a long time that I am pleased with the UA-cam suggestion algorithm :-p I watched the BLDC vid first, then this one. Your videos are excellent. Well filmed and edited, comprehensive, appropriate length, good pacing. I Subscribed right away, will watch more of your videos in the future, and will check out your website as well. When I buy the components for this project, I'll gladly use your Affiliate links to support you!
@@HowToMechatronics can you give the rough number of test boards that you required for testing , because many issues like power , EMI , short circuits exist in PCBs fabrication
Thanks! Just make sure you have the right Arduino Pro Mini or modify the PCB according to your Arduino Pro Mini. I already mention this in the video that there are different Pro Mini versions with different pin layouts. You can find a link to the Pro Mini I used on the website article.
This is an amazing project, definitely need to patreon you guys. I would love to see a version of this remote with a web interface, this will allow a user to control a platform anywhere the wi-fi network can extend such as a hospital building.
On the analog inputs you reduce the 10 bit input integer data to an 8 bit byte using map. The map function used addition, substaction, multiplication and division. (look up the source code of map) Instead of all these computational steps just to throw away 2 bits you could have used the right shift operation. In one step. byte data = analogRead(pinName) >> 2;
5:23 you can tell that he has a lot of experience because he puts his finger on top of the pin being cut so it doesn't shoot across the room or into his eye!

I did this project myself but it is not working. Code same
Help me plz bro
can you consider making a tutorial on you made this pcb for this rc please
just signed up for patreon much support brother
is it possible to somehow make the controller have more functions, e.g. more potentiometers and switches?

which capacitors u used?
@ any capacitor for same voltage should work. Take 3.3v 100uf it is enough
@ so both capacitor for this controller na
@@LegendGuy I didn’t understand?
@ like there are 2 capactiors used

Great one, I think your projects are better than many commercial products. Keep sharing these things with us.
Thanks!
The PCB looks so good. Great project, well executed. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
that is the clearest explanation of the NRF code I've heard yet, cheers
I had no idea that there was such a user friendly service that offers this opportunity.
I just subbed.
Thanx

Thanks!
OMG you cut acrylic by hand! I thought it was Laser cut. Fantastic job!
One of the most useful channels in the UA-cam.
I learned a lot from it
this makes me wish i could smash all of this knowledge into my own head in a single instant and also do all of these awesome projects
Lluvik With enough commitment you can do anything
Lluvik where's the fun in that? Learning is much more fun than knowing
Bro it's not only need knowledge it also needs money if you have money you can do anything
You could literally do anything if you stopped wishing and started doing

@@sekharjavvadi I can help you
what type of capacitors did you use in the transmitter(ratings)..…?
and thankyou i found the project pretty interesting..!
A great video🙏🙏 such a genuine explanation........ literally praiseworthy.....you should make video more frequently if possible
the ant is VERY CUTE
Great!! Thanks for uploading this clip. You have all the abilities to work as an instuctor. Please continue ...
Thank you!
which capacitors are needed for this transmitter ?
can you help me with the similar issue i also am having trouble finding values of capacitance
Well done. Wonderful project. Very professional. Comprehensively and clearer explained. Thank-you a pleasure to watch :)
that board does look nice... can't believe that you cut that by hand though...lol
In have never seen anyone make a transmitter so clearly and clean. Other projects of transmitters looked like raw bricks
what kind of buttons and capacitors shall we use?
6x6 x15 H for buttons and 10mF for capacitors?
MAN, this Controller looks very badass! AMAZING WORK! Thanks for sharing!
Hi, my question is what are the capacitor readings you used in this project
me too i dont know?
Waw this is really a perfect Diy joystick controller , electronics and design are perfect
Nice work Mr Dejan (y)
Thank you, I'm glad to hear this!
Great video, very detailed oriented. May i know what kind capacitor you use in the video?
heads up to anyone that is actually building this...
-the parts list does not have ALL the parts
-the toggle switches are not the right kind
-and there is a 99% chance that you will have to redo the PCB board because the arduino pro mini does not have the right locations of pins(even though he mentions it, you might miss it)

Hi how to mechatronics
Will you please make a video of
Making a drone with your Arduino transmitter and receiver (with WiFi camera based on Arduino)
WiFi is not very good for RC, and arduino will not do WiFi
Look at the esp8266 for such projects
I love the quality of your projects. They inspire me to keep going
I'm glad to hear that, thank you!
oh my god... that was so professional... i loved it............
If u share all hardware and pcb files i will definitely buy/make.
I think he made a guide on their website with everything listed.
Thanks! Yes, check the website article for parts list and PCB files.
It’s a joy to listen to you making everything seem so easy. Thanks ! Keep going !
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing such great ideas thank you so much sir 😘
Very clean, beautiful and amazing tutorial. Thanks for this
I need this circuit , can you give me arquive gerber ?

That one is way nicer than the one I hacked together, looks great.
Great tutorial! And channel! I have a question: what soldering iron are you using?
Something like this would take my RC construction equipment to the next level.
How bind this transmiter with reciver?
Makes it look SO EASY ! Right, COOL NONE THE LESS , OUTSTANDING!

Thank you for the great tutorial!
What size capacitor did you use before the voltage regulator?
10uF, 16V
