The code


Homemade cheap drone - Transmitter CODE
Help me by sharing this post





Download the .zip file below. Open the Arduino (.ino) code on your Arduino IDE and upload it to the Transmitter Arduino and make sure you have the connections as in the schematic below. You could also copy and paste the code from below. Remember, you will alos need the NRF24 library so download it from below as well.

Download the Transmitter (6ch) code:



Download NRF24 library
