I Designed a PCB for my RC Transmitter

- I'm building an Arduino powered RC Transmitter from scratch! My current one works, but there was a lot to be desired, so I'm starting from the ground up. The plan is to turn this into a kit so you guys can make it too, so I hope you like what you see!
In this video I recap the creation of the schematic and PCB in KiCad, UI design, and demoing of the PCB from PCBWay, the sponsor of this video!

The amount of hours and hard work you have put in is amazing. It's honestly so inspiring.
As always really informative and funny, I love the way make fun of your fails and setback. This is the way ! Good work 🙂
Thank you so much!
Great video! It was a lot of fun watching the streams
Thanks! I'm really glad to hear that :)
Watching this project from the start has me very excited for the final reaults! It looks amazing!
bro this is impressive af. keep up the good work fr, fr.
thank you so much 🙂
FINALLY NEW VIDEO!
ikr 😄
0:42 Absolutely... me too
For the stats, a "max jump height" would be nice as well.
The "... Or so i thought", is basically Vsauce's "... Or is it?"
a born master, best hexapod project period!! loved it from the start, great stuff!
Thank you so much ♥️
12:19 was my favorite part 😻
Nice!
Bravo sir.
The TFT touch displays are fun ;-) Not sure what library you used, but the Bodmer TFT_eSPI is my go-to. I developed on a Pico, and you need to make sure you're using the appropriate SPI/MISO pins, and get the chip select pin right.
Can you add camera for object tracking or defining? also congrats good job on it
How long before you start selling kits, I would love one!
Hey man , how long to launch the part 2 of this video? I'm anxious. I printed and assembled all mechanical and 3D parts but I need more details about remote control. Could you please publish the remote control final video? :)
What servo are you using for the hexapod currently???
Really nice, I like it a lot!
I was not sure if I should join the stream and advice you to skip Arduino Nano and nRF interially. I think it is now too late to suggest doing this with ESP32 and ESP-NOW as protocol?
Also avoiding the SPI TFT and Shift registers and replacing it with I²C modules was a good choice.
Thanks!!
For this specific controller I really wanted to stick with Arduino if possible. I do want to make another one though that uses the teensy, although I should definitely look into the esp as well.
Thanks yeah that first screen was a massive mistake with the Arduino lol. With the teensy though... I can't wait to use it!
where is part 2?
???????????????????????
Great
My instinct would be not to connect the rotary encoder to the shift register, preferably inte...
OH YOU FIGURED IT OUT GREAT.
If you want to be a little evil, you can use inline resistors instead of voltage dividers for the screen or your 3.3V SPI devices in general. The extra current gets absorbed by ESD diodes on the ICs, shifting the voltage. Though at this point i would probably run not walk towards microcontrollers with 3.3V IO because honestly what 5V device are you going to connect, in this day and age, in year 2023? And if you find one, fine, you still have some 5V-tolerant pins, and 5V devices do read 3.3V as logic high. Also with a modern micro, you're going to update that SPI full colour screen smooth like butter like a criminal undercover gon pop like trouble breaking into your heart like that; cool shade stunner yeah i owe it all to my mother hot like summer i'm making you sweat like that. (sorry, i had to sing)
The voltage shifter you have has its 5V side on side B and 3.3V side on side A. I hope you haven't used it in reverse? Because your arrows on the screen show the reverse, and if you did, i can't tell you whether it's even still alive. Also observe the OE (output enable) function, needs to be high with A-side reference voltage, but enabled preferably after power bring-up.
Where are you setting up CE (chip enable) aka CS (chip select) functionality? You have two SPI devices, you have one SPI port, they are going to be in parallel, disambiguated by CS lines, that you need to set up in the corresponding libraries for both of the functional units or nothing will ever work, and if you yeet the code for the other device, you still have to do something with the corresponding CS pin to disable it. If either of the devices doesn't have CS, you can't use them together. Also whatever level shifting shenanigans you engage in, you probably want to do them before both units right out your micro.
may i point out that 90 degree corners on a pcb are not desireble so pls watch out for that ;) this is also the case when joining 2 traces togather
the reason that the capasitor worked is because it dampens the noice coming from the regulator (i had the same problem and i ordered a custom pcb for the antena version that was a 3.3v regulator meaning when i plug it in to the 5v on the arduino i get a flat 3.3v out the other end)
Yo jus wondering what happened to your old origami channel? Did u just quit it or what happened exactly
Can you please make a smaller version using mg90s servos please. This is war too expensive
what happened to the streams man?
Add a mini IA
hope you doing to me more than in full tutorial
Part 2 will be covering me finishing this project, and then after that I will release a full tutorial video + a kit you can buy!
@@AecertRoboticsSo excited for this!! When do you think they’ll be ready to ship?
Hey! Progress!
Yup! Ironically the harder part for me right now is creating the videos, but im working on streamlining the process
@@AecertRobotics Good to hear. Looking forward to it!
