Openplotter rf remote connections gpio - chech - 2021-06-10
Hello i want to make my pypilot olny whith openplotter i read all the documentation but nobody talk for the 433rf remote it IS possible and have you test this fonction i stay the hardware but if you have expérience of this way i love your conseil maybe have a specific thread in openplotter forum for juste present all the project whith différents hardware and différent level of maker junior senior and newbie thanks

It is possible using the latest pypilot hat. I have very few hats at the moment and didn't list them, you can PM me if you are interested.
or you can of course wire your own: https://pypilot.org/schematics/pypilot_tinypilot.pdf
it requires 433mhz receiver wired to arduino which is wired to the spi pins of the pi

If y understand it want 2 Arduino one for rf and one for contrôl it not possible whith Uno or mega whith all in one for more fiability sorry for m'y Bad english

sorry, no it is not possible with a single arduino.
This is because RF receiver needs dedicated processor for reliable reception. This is why the pi itself cannot do this reliably..
the motor controller also needs dedicated processor due to software driven pwm output
