ESP8266 + CC1101 #10

I've had a look at the code. It should be possible to compile ESP8266 code to run the CC1101 directly, and have it provide a WiFi serial port for network access to the CC1101.

It would be a fairly big undertaking, but provide a pretty cheap way to add CULs to your network. CC1101 + ESP8266 will be $4 or so.

My experience with ESP8266 is zero outside the arduino IDE, I've never gone neat a makefile or anything, so I would struggle.

Are you familiar with the ESP8266 enough to give this a go?

My idea at the moment is to just attach an ESP8266 to a nanoCUL, but the ESP8266 is more than powerful, has a lot more RAM, and is 3.3V already.

Hi, there are several approches to that, but the timing of the ESP8266 ia not that simple, than in the realtime Arduino. Also refer to: https://github.com/supersjimmie/IthoEcoFanRFT/blob/master/README.md Regards, Arnd
