transmitter/receiver

(1/1)

gshoger:
i am going to buy a transmitter and a receiver because i want to build a remote controlled robot.  i have one question about the number of channels.  if i want to be able to control three servos/motors, do i need a transmitter with three channels and a receiver with three channels?  does each channel control a different part of the robot?

thanks

ed1380:
each channel for each servo.
one channel right wheels, one channel left wheels, 3rd channel for accesories

You can get by with just one transmitter and one receiver.  if you are using somethng like this (http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=872, it is a simple matter of transmitting a serial command that would be received and processed on the robot.  One command would be to turn the robot left, another command to drive forward, another to turn right, etc.
