Xbee Raspberry Pi Arduino Jumble Remote Control

Foam and Tape Xbee Raspberry Pi Arduino Jumble Remote

Foam and Tape Xbee Raspberry Pi Arduino Jumble Remote. Turnigy 4X donated the joysticks and panel a cheap way to get this hardware btw.

Sticking with the Xbee and Arduino for control as the boot time is < 3 seconds. An RPi is to slow booting for the main control system.



Based on the old design Xbee Arduino Remote 


The plan is to have a video overlay driven by another Arduino Uno on the LCD 



The board from the 4X is pretty handy and It retains the trim rocker switches



 

Arduino captures video from Raspberry Pi Composite Out


 

I may not use the RPi after all as its boot time is fairly long. I need to arrange 
a setup to allow switching between external sink and overlay. 




Should be an interesting project need some inspiration on the UI design. Its going to be old school B&W or overlay with soft keys I think driven by a second Arduino
