Selection of transmitter/receiver for remote controlled car

[larsdenmark]

I want to make a remote controlled car, but need help for choosing the transmitter/receiver technology.

Maximum distance is 50 m. Both the controller and the car should be able to send and receive. I would like to be able to equip the car with a camera, but the image doesn't have to be live video.

What technology is the easiest to interface to? I'm used to work with ESP32, RP2040 and Arduinos. My preferred language is C/C++.

2.4 GHz is pretty standard these days for two-way R/C. Check out Graupner/JR or Robbe.

Thanks.

I would like to be able to transfer images from the car to the controller. The 2.4 GHz controllers you link to do not seem to support that. Also I had hoped I could build something that would cost less than 1000€

I would use nrf24l01p for control and esp8266 for images (wifi). Need to put some efforts to make work seamlessly.
