2016-07-09 08:05:49 Look at basecamelectronics - They have a serial API to control TX/RX interface. They have several projects on got hub that will be of use.
For example:
void Gimbal_SendCommand(byte Command, byte *Data, int Size)
{
byte i, Checksum = 0;
Serial1.write('>');
Serial1.write(Command);
Serial1.write(Size);
Serial1.write(Command + Size);
for(i=0; i < Size; i++)
{
Checksum += Data[i];
Serial1.write(Data[i]);
}
Serial1.write(Checksum);
// Serial.print(Command);
// Serial.println(" Message sent.");
delay(20); /* 20ms delay as suggested in SimpleBGC firmware */
} tnapoleon74
For example:
void Gimbal_SendCommand(byte Command, byte *Data, int Size)
{
byte i, Checksum = 0;
Serial1.write('>');
Serial1.write(Command);
Serial1.write(Size);
Serial1.write(Command + Size);
for(i=0; i < Size; i++)
{
Checksum += Data[i];
Serial1.write(Data[i]);
}
Serial1.write(Checksum);
// Serial.print(Command);
// Serial.println(" Message sent.");
delay(20); /* 20ms delay as suggested in SimpleBGC firmware */

tnapoleon74 2016-07-09 05:51:22 I couldn't find any sample receiver code. Since DFRobot has supplied the gamepad Tx code could you not supply a simple string decoder for an Arduino receiver?
It's hard work piecing this together into a solution without it. I am sure, from the above that it's just a few lines of code showing the Serial.read() part of a sketch.
I am sure many others would be helped.

2016-01-14 17:19:28 Hi, I'm new in this forum and I would like you to help me.
I recently bought the Wireless Gamepad Joystick control, and I started to build a miniature model of a Hovercraft.
The objective of this project was to control the device with the gamepad, communicating with Xbee. Everything was ok until the program started giving me problems.
My problem is this: What happens to me is that the controller sends me data of the analog button but the Arduino does not receive the same values I send, that is, my goal is to press (J1 or J2) buttons in order to control the speed of the BRUSSHLESS.

moisesduranparraga 2015-01-28 02:16:13 but how I can read a serie of numbers ? like 1023 and commas.
I have another problem with this if you can help me it will be very nice.
I have this code from dfRobot, when I press UP and L1 I want to do something like turning a led, but actually my code works like this.. I press only one time L1 and y=true, if I press UP the led turns on every time I press UP, if I press both led turns on (that's what I want), how can I fix that problem? I tried to enter several loops there without success
