===Background===
 +
*Joypad perhaps is born for rc controller.
 +
*Joypad can remotely control not only the Robot, but also the quadrotor.
 +
*It can support for multiple communication methods through stacking different Microduino modules .
 +
*It can also configure a variety of function through the TFT color screen.
 +
*Hope you can read this tutorial, and use Joypad to play your robot, little car, and quadrotor.

1.27mm 8P connecting line 1 To connect the TFT screen
10440 3.7v lithium battery（optional） 1 Power supply
Micro-USB cable（optional） 1 Program download


Step-1 Programming

Download the Source Code

At first download the program from the following address [Joypad_RC]

Stack Modules

  • Use cable to connect Microduino-USBTTL, and stack it together with your core to prepare to upload the program.
    • Note：You’d better upload the program before stacking all modules together.

Configure the Environment

  • Open Arduino IDE for Microduino environment（Reference for setting up：AVR Core：Getting started）
  • Confirm the “board card” and“processor” is chosen correctly, and choose the corresponding port number (COMX).

Program Download

  • Open the “Joypad_RC.ino” program in the programs that you have downloaded.
  • Click "→" to download the program to the development board.

Step-2 Reference Voltage

  • In order to fitting for the input devices of Core and Joypad under any voltage：Rocker and the reference voltage of the switch are adjustable.
    • If you have chosen CoreRF or the Core with 3.3V power source such as Core 3.3V and Core+ 3.3V.
    • You need to reset the reference voltage of the mainboard of Joypad through the jumpers.

Step-3 Battery powered

Specifications of the Supported Battery

  • The specifications of the batteries that are supported is as following
Function/Type of battery 10440 lithium battery （3.7V） AAA battery（1.5V）
Whether to support one piece YES NO
Whether to support two pieces YES YES
Whether to support charging YES NO


  • We recommend to use 10440 lithium battery（3.7V）

Active the Power Management Circuit

  • Referring to the following picture, according to the use of the battery, switch the battery mode switch to the correct position before access to the battery.
Joypadstep1 1.jpg
  • After connecting the battery, you must plug the USB, to active the battery management circuit of Joypad.
  • After activing, you can control the power source switch of Joypad.

Electric Quantity Reminding and Charging（Limited to the 10440 Lithium Battery）

  • When you use two 7 batteries，you can’t use USB to charge， and it will destroy the battery
  • When the LOW indicator light lights close to the USB, the electric quantity of the battery is insufficient.
    • When you use AAA battery, the light will be lighting all the time due to the insufficient voltage.
  • Plug the USB, then it begins to charge.
  • The CHRG indicator lamp close to the USB will light when charging, and the brightness will be lower or go out when the battery is fully charges.

Step-4 Assembly

  • Step 1：
  • Clip Microduino-TFT in the Microduino-Joypad panel from the back.
  • Use nylon screws and nylon nuts to fix, and pay attention to the installing direction of Microduino-TFT.
