About the Arduino Shield RC Controller

Arduino Shield RC Controller is an open source AVR/Arduino PCB design by michaelshiloh, published on GitHub under the AGPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 135 × 100 mm, with 21 components from 13 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ARDUINO_R3, from the AVR/Arduino family. By type, the board carries 6 connectors, 5 switches, 2 capacitors and 2 resistors.

It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts and robotics & motion designs in this gallery.

Some PCBs I have designed to help with my classes and other projects: - ArduinoShieldHobbyRCAndMotorControl: Holes for 6 wires to connect to an L298 (or similary) dual H-bridge motor driver, and six connectors suitable for a hobby RC receiver. Used in Performing Robots but could be useful to anyone connecting an Arduino Uno to a hobby RC receiver or an L298 dual H-bridge motor driver. - ICsockets/16PinSocketAPC: breakout board for a 14 pin DIP, with silkscreen markings aimed at making at Atari Punk Console. I'll add a link to the full instructions when I find them. - nRFservoMega: Arduino…

Arduino Shield RC Controller: common questions

What microcontroller does the Arduino Shield RC Controller use?

The Arduino Shield RC Controller is built around the ARDUINO_R3, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Arduino Shield RC Controller?

The Arduino Shield RC Controller measures 135 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Arduino Shield RC Controller?

21 components, from 13 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Arduino Shield RC Controller design files?

From the michaelshiloh/resourcesForClasses repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Arduino Shield RC Controller design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its AGPL-3.0 license, which michaelshiloh chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Arduino Shield RC Controller without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
