2.4GHz Wireless Remote Control Transmitter and Receiver Set for DIY Science Projects and STEAM Learning - Pica Toys
2.4GHz Wireless Remote Control Transmitter and Receiver Set for DIY Science Projects and STEAM Learning - Pica Toys
This 2.4GHz wireless remote control transmitter and receiver set from Pica Toys lets you move a DIY vehicle or robot in four directions: forward, backward, left, and right. Each transmitter pairs exclusively with its own receiver, and you can operate several sets in the same area without any signal interference. The control range reaches up to 160 feet (about 49 meters). Built-in indicator lights show when the remote or receiver is powered on and during turning. Both units include their own on/off switches. Designed for school science projects and STEAM education, this set is suitable for kids aged 8 and up who are building motorized toy cars or other creative engineering projects.
What Can You Control with This Remote Set?
This wireless system is meant for DIY needs. It works well with most motor car toys and other small DC motor-driven projects. The receiver connects to your project’s motor controller or directly to motors. You can solder the wires or use fast connectors for quick, secure connections. Many makers use it to convert a regular toy car into a wireless-controlled model. Because it uses 2.4GHz frequency, you can have multiple projects running at the same time without one remote accidentally controlling another car.
Easy Installation for DIY Projects
Installation is straightforward. The receiver has clearly marked terminals for power, motor connections, and the indicator lights. The remote comes with a battery compartment (batteries not included). Switches on both the remote and receiver let you turn them off to save power when not in use. The indicator lights help you confirm that both units are powered and communicating. You can test the connection by pressing a button and seeing the corresponding light on the receiver.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far does the remote reach?
The control range is rated up to 160 feet (about 49 meters) in open air. Actual range may vary based on obstacles and battery condition.
Can I use two or more of these sets in the same room?
Yes. Each remote pairs only with its own receiver, and the 2.4GHz frequency allows multiple sets to operate without interfering with each other.
Do I need to solder?
You can solder the wires or use fast connectors (such as screw terminals or crimp connectors). The receiver terminals are designed for either method.
What is included in the package?
You get one transmitter remote and one receiver module. Batteries and connecting wires are not included.
