In this tutorial we will learn how to make an Arduino based RC receiver. Since building my DIY Arduino RC transmitter in one of my previous videos, I got a lot of requests from you guys, to make a dedicated receiver for it, so here it is.

Many thanks for the good video. I think this could be a good way to make RC (even) more affortable. Do you think it would be possible to control FLYSKY receiver like the fs-gr3e? they cost 5 euro and they are super compact. so I would you use your transmitter with existing receiver.

Would it be possible to have a stepped control knob on the transmitter that could switch between receivers? So for example, switching between model locomotives with the same receiver? This could be a channel switcher.

HI awesome project, easy to follow. Nicely narrated. Btw, you dont have to set Programmer if you use FTDI. It is only necessary when using an actual ISP programmer (MISO, MOSI....)
