#74356 Well hello everyone,

Here is another newbie ( or noob ) .
Since I got this device I was searching on the Internet about it as to how to use it and connect it properly.
There is lots of information about flashing it and using the "ESP8266WiFi.h" library but so little about how to use it without flashing and reprogramming it, if that is convenient of course.

So what I would like to ask you guys is that I have a project in mind to control my RC car over the ESP8266 from my computer. First of all, can I do that without flashing ESP8266, just with AT commands?

For example, I just want to toggle my Arduino Uno pins or analog ones with a command from ESP8266 which will also be sent from my computer. Just for basic motor controls.

Thank you!
