+ | Most standard RC transmitters are bulky, and fragile. It's always a big deal to carry them around, especially when you have small quads. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Some time ago, I bought a micro quad: the Faze from HorizonHobby. It's basically a clone of the LadyBird or the CX-10. I had a great fun flying it around, but it ended up... faulty (battery can't hold harge, some dead LEDs, and finally a dead motor). | ||

+ | The transmitter is reaaally small ! So I thought I'd try to use it to fly my other quads. Indead of just replacing the PCB, I decided to keep it so I don't have to deal with the trim buttons, pots reading and conversion, ... The communication protocol is not standard so I opened the transmitter and got to work. | ||
