Hi,
Could somebody tell me is it possible to interface an RC reveiver to a PICAXE controller.

What I am trying to do is,
Take a pulse from a channel on the RC receiver,
Send it to an input on the Picaxe,
Have the varying 1ms to 2ms pulse trigger a program/code.

Is this possible?
For example when the TX stick is moved to transmit a 2ms pulse, the picaxe will pick up on the pulse changing from 1.5ms to 2ms then trigger a simple code to put an output on the Picaxe high.

Any info on this would be greatly appreciated,
Regards NM

Alberto,
How do I implement this,
I am new to the PICAXE ic and programming in general, is there any site/link that would demonstrate this type of setup, detailing how to write the code for pulsed inputs?
Regards NM
