  • No need for programming here, this is just down and dirty analog joystick input on the transmitter to pwm output on the receiver. Meant for very simple control for servo's and speed controllers. With six channels (2 analog joysticks with 2 channels each, and two Pot controls) you can hook up for tank drive quickly and have 4 open channels for whatever you want to add. More advance users can get into programming the transmitter to mix channels and open up endless possibilities.

    The entire kit is based around 2.4 Ghz Radio Control, just like what controls your radio controlled car, boat, or plane. Now you can interface with robotic parts without the need to program anything. It can be used to help test your mechanical design before the programmers are ready to input code, or your electrical group has finished wiring.
    No batteries are included with this item. The transmitter requires 8 AA batteries while the receiver can be powered by a 6V battery pack, 4 x AA in series, or anything that produces 6V +/- 2V DC. For driving 6V servos, minimum of 6V power supply is required.

    Binding procedure for the am-2520
    Note: The negative pin is furthest from the antenna on the short side of the receiver.
    1. Install the batteries in the transmitter.
    2. Insert the jumper to the Bat port of the receiver.
    3. Connect the receiver battery to any one of the channels. The LED will be flashing meaning the receiver is waiting for the transmitter.
    4. Press and hold the Bind button on the transmitter, and then switch on the transmitter.
    5. Observe the LED on the receiver. When the LED stops flashing, the bind was successful. This should be almost instantly.
    6. Release the Bind button on the transmitter and remove the jumper and receiver battery (remove everything from the receiver)
    7. Install a servo and receiver battery and test if the bind was successful.
    8. If the test fails, repeat steps 1-7.
    Programming software
    There is an option to program your receiver via PC and you will have to order the programming cable. You can use T6config free software for programming your transmitter. We recommend using Digital Radio software, as it is better, and costs only 2 dollars.
