| − | The RFM69HCW (915MHz) transceiver offers several benefits over the 433MHz ASK radios:
| |
| − | * greater range with higher transmit power
| |
| − | * much higher raw bitrate
| |
| − | * half-duplex communication and received signal strength indicator (RSSI)
| |
| − | * compatibility with higher-performance 3.3V ARM boards like SAMD21
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Using the RF69 RadioHead library, the RC system has expanded capabilities from the RH ASK implementation. Data is stored on both ends as a C struct, which is broken down and transmitted as bytes by the RF69 library. After successful transmission, the data is accessible directly from the struct and variables larger than one byte need no additional processing before use. After successfully receiving a packet from the remote control, the receiver sends a packet back with an RSSI value. The remote control uses this reply message to indicate radio communication is active.
