FS100A and XY-MK-5V are super cheap and super simple 433MHz modules. Some people report they work well, some that link is lost even at a range of few centimeters. I've decided to test that, and do a proper range test in open space.
With proper antennas, those little 433MHz modules can have a decent range. Who would expect that...

    This is one of the most useful videos I have ever watched, great work👍👍
  • @planker
    Nice presentation. I perchased several variants of these inexpensive ASK modules. Its fun testing them. Your test rig is cool. I will dedicate the Nano's when I get better at it. Thanks for the Show.
  • @paramshah415
    Great job sir ...m also impresse with your knowledge .wow
  • @davidbrooks8621
    Great job. You have done a job that allows others to believe that these simple components work not bad at all and can be used.
  • Any video explaining how these 433 mhz transmitter and receiver circuit works , what is the function of every components used in the schematic , how the signals are transmitted from transmitter to receiver to control the e.g. motors of the RC toy
  • @zazugee
    you can use a loop antenna to deal with interference, they have a null in the vertical axis

    These modules are also excellent to listen to doorbells (sender) or to activate doorbells (listener). ;-) With these you can combine different models or brands and use only one doorbell knob (sender) to trigger all doorbells by sending all the codes required. Using RF switches (listener), it is possible to activate or deactivate lights or other equipment remotely from your arduino.
  • @Tutu-ue2mf
    Sir can you say about the antennayou used is it available to buy
  • @chrishall4012
    Hey I know this is kind of an old video but I have a questionand sorry if it seems stupid but I know nothing about this. Im big into rockets and I was wondering could you hook up extra wires coming off the receiver to a fuse to iqnite the thermite in the rocket engine with current?
  • @cemtanca2286
    that fs100A like a dream but if you change also crystal different frequencies also = anyway good job bro
  • Hey, I have a question on the antenna you built. is a monopole, but can you increase range converting it to a dipole (adding the gnd) ? is it possible?
  • @t59y93
    How much voltage did you connect to the transmitter?
  • @cemtanca2286
    hi good test but not enough = tx antenna next to little capasitor move it and solder directly and same length of anttena directly to opposite to ground (-) make a dipol antenna = see the resolt.= 800m open area without loss
  • @t59y93
    What kind of antenna did you use?
  • Hello , I have a question . In my project I would need to acquire (very relatively ) the distance between the transmitter and the receiver , through a calculation between the time of sending the message and the time of receiving . With 2 arduino , both with one transmitter and one receiver each . the first send a message and marks time , the second receives it and sends it right back , the first receives it and marks time again . I wanted to know if you have an idea (more or less) , how long the travel time ( in ms) could be , if the transmitter and receiver were 5 meters or 10 .
