Built around the SAMD21 microcontroller, it provides a flexible alternative to hobby RC transmitters — configure it your way at a fraction of the cost.\n\nThe kit can be assembled in two configurations: dual joysticks for tank-style steering, or a single joystick with four 12mm momentary push buttons for a retro gamepad layout. Just add your own XBee module and lithium-ion battery into the provided sockets and you're ready to go.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nSAMD21 Microcontroller – Powerful, Arduino-compatible processor on board\n\nDual Configuration – Build with two joysticks or one joystick plus four buttons\n\nXBee Socket – Add any XBee module for wireless communication\n\nLiPo Battery Socket – On-board socket for portable power\n\nFully Customisable – Program your own control scheme and button mappings\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nMicrocontroller – SAMD21\n\nWireless – XBee socket (XBee module not included)\n\nPower – Lithium-ion battery socket (battery not included)\n\n\n\nNote: This is a soldering kit — assembly required (beginner-level soldering).
