How to Watch Design Squad
Design Squad is available to stream on pbs.org and the free PBS App, available on iPhone, Apple TV, Android TV, Android smartphones, Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire Tablet, Roku, Samsung Smart TV, and Vizio.
Here's how radio control in a remote control system works.
A transmitter sends electromagnetic radiation called radio waves to an RC receiver.
The receiver decodes information in the radio waves to produce electrical signals.
These electrical signals power actuators that rotate their cameras and move their systems.
