INTRODUCTION
Over the years open-source platforms such us
arduino, raspberry pi and others helped students,
hobbyists, programmers, and professionals in
creating their own electronic projects depending
on the demand and need.
In our case, will be using the arduino prototype
board called Gizduino to make a remote control car
using RF module.

How it works

COMPONENTS
RF Module
- is a small electronic circuit which is used to receive,
transmit or transceive radio waves on one of a number of
carrier frequencies. The corresponding frequency range
varies between 30 kHz up to 300 GHz.

COMPONENTS
In this project we use the EGRF-433A1 433MHz UHF ASK
Data Transmitter and Receiver Module.
Low cost solution for radio wireless control application
circuits.
Operating at 433MHz ISM frequencies,
Remote operating reach 100 meters in open field

COMPONENTS
Gizduino V5 Atmega328P
- like arduino uno is an open source computing platform
based on a simple input/output (I/O)board .
Programmed using IDE(Integrated Development
Environment)
With USB Power Source Indicator
Mini USB Connector
+5V Power Port pads
Protoboard Ready Alternate Pins Layout
Buffered RX/TX Indicator
UART Switch
Buffered I/O 13 Indicator
