making arduino drone reaceiver

 

Hello guys my self pankaj and welcome to our blog THE ELECTRONICS CREATOR

Todays we are starting the drone making series.

In todays  video we make drone receiver. For that we need some components and a useful circuit systematic diagram.

Needed components

Ardiuno Nano  

NRF 24Lo1 RF module.

2 X 25volt 10uf Capacitor

AMS1117 3.3v regulator IC

Male heeder pins.

Small PCB

Connecting wires

 

components buying links

arduino nano

NRF24L01 module

capacitor

AMS1117 3.3V IC

male and female heeder pins and veroboard

youtube video link 

Procedure

1^st we can solder an Arduino nano and the NRF24L01 module on vero board.

Connect 10uf capacitor between VCC and GND pin of RF module.

Here we use AMS1117 3.3v regulator IC because guys the RF MODULE working on 3.3volt,

Now guys you can said if the 3.3v pin is already available on Arduino so why you are use this IC, because guys that arduino 3.3volt pin cannot provide efficient current to this RF MODUL so directly we use this external IC that is AMS1117.

 

Now guys make connection by following this diagram.

 

 

Or guys after making this CIRCUIT we need the upload program for that you can download this program file and open it in your ARDUINO IDE software

 download code

Before uploading this program you need to download sum libraries that you can download from here.

          NRF24L01 MODULE LIBRARY

                                                                                   

                                                   

Now guys our receiver circuit is ready….

Now guys our 1^st circuit is ready

So byy byy and tack care. We will meet in another video…….

 

 

 

if you not geting code you ca copy this code directly

/*A basic 4 channel transmitter using the nRF24L01 module.*/

/* Like, share and subscribe, ELECTRONOOBS */

/* http://www.youtube/c/electronoobs */

/* First we include the libraries. Download it from 

   my webpage if you donw have the NRF24 library */

 

#include <SPI.h>

#include <nRF24L01.h>

#include <RF24.h>

/*Create a unique pipe out. The receiver has to 

  wear the same unique code*/

  

const uint64_t pipeOut = 0xE8E8F0F0E1LL; //IMPORTANT: The same as in the receiver

RF24 radio(9, 10); // select  CSN  pin

// The sizeof this struct should not exceed 32 bytes

// This gives us up to 32 8 bits channals

struct MyData {

  byte AUX2;

};

{

  //This are the start values of each channal

  // Throttle is 0 in order to stop the motors

  //127 is the middle value of the 10ADC.

}

void setup()

{

  //Start everything up

  radio.begin();

  radio.setAutoAck(false);

  radio.setDataRate(RF24_250KBPS);

  radio.openWritingPipe(pipeOut);

  resetData();

}
