Welcome to the nRF24-Esk8-Remote wiki!

The construction of the remote can be divided into three different processes.

  1. Enclosure and mechanical parts
  2. Electronics
  3. Software

Enclosure and mechanical parts

The remote enclosure and inner mechanism consist of five different 3D-printed parts, a few bolts, and a spring. All 3D-printable parts for the remote can be found on Thingiverse.

Electronics

The main electronics of the remote are an Arduino Nano, a nRF24 transmitter, and a Hall Effect sensor. The electronics are powered by a lithium polymer battery with a nominal voltage of 3,7V and a capacity of 400mAh. To charge the battery and boost the voltage to 5V, two separated boards are used, however, a complete solution like the SparkFun Power Cell (boost and charger) would be more ideal.

Software

All software to the remote is ready to use and easy to install by using the Arduino IDE.
