NRF24L01 Controller and Receiver
My project is an NRF24L01 Controller and Receiver. The idea is to use NRF communication to control any car or any RC device, in a way that allows it to be connected to any device, not dedicated to a single car, drone, or RC plane.

Enhancing the Project
So, after receiving feedback, I realized that I was missing some important parts in the README to better explain the project. I added a setup section and another section about the usage of the project, where I clarified what it means that it can run on more than one device and I've added some emojis 😊

hi there! I think this project is awesome but it's currently very hard to understand how to use it and what exactly it's for (as in when you could apply a similar device in your own usage) - if you could add some more info on the project in the README on setup etc that would be great - excited to see this project come back!

Shipping The project
So for today, I am finishing the project and shipping it, adding my final touches by editing the Git repository, adding images and code, creating the BOM, and making a banner image for the project. I hope you like the project and that the code and diagrams are helpful to you guys..png)

NRF Coding and Testing
Today, I spent all my time coding, figuring out how to program the NRF and the required libraries. I watched a lot of YouTube videos, but it still didn’t work. Then I went through the NRF library code examples and tested many sketches until I found a working one. After getting a working code that sends and receives data, I moved to the next part, which was linking it to the joystick and ADXL354 values on the transmitter, as well as the six outputs on the receiver. I then spent the rest of the time testing each port.

Soldering the receiver
Today, I soldered the receiver board. I faced a lot of problems because I got the wrong components: I received an AMS1117 instead of the L7805 voltage regulator, and that took me quite some time to figure out. Then I went back to the transmitter after getting the AMS1117 module, and I spent the rest of the time doing continuity tests and fixing some small problems in my soldering.

soldering the transmitter
So yesterday, I spent a long 7-hour soldering session where I soldered the NRF transmitter with all the components, except the AMS1117, which I’m still waiting to get. I faced some major problems, as I discovered that the Pro Mini is not very soldering-friendly, so I had to make a few changes in order to make it work.

Receiver diagramme and Controller diagramme correction
Today, I designed the circuit diagram for the Receiver and i found that i didn't link the 5v and GND to the arduino so i did add those two wire and currently waiting for components in order to solder them in solder board

Controller diagramme
Today, I designed the circuit diagram for the controller. I selected the components I plan to use and decided to go with two joysticks, a 0.96" I2C OLED display, an MPU6050, and of course, the NRF module.
