Hi there,
I am going to be building with my brother a remote control car in the next 12 months, quite a big one, he will be doing the engineering and I'll be doing the electronics. For that, I need to swot up on radio. I could just buy a chipset like the TX2/RX2 but I like to learn things properly.
So, basically, what I want to do for a first project, is have two breadboards, one a receiver and one a transmitter. On the transmitter I want to press a button and it transmit an on signal, on the receiver I want to be able to detect that and light up and LED. I think this would be a good starter radio quest.
Any ideas on how I would do this, I've read quite a few tutorials today, I'm not looking for a full diagram just some pointers, friendly advice and encouraging tips!
Cheers
