Use ESP8266 as a 2.4GHz non-WiFi module for communicating.

Hi,

I have been using the NRF24l01 modules for a while, but I am looking for something with a fast intergrated cpu.
So I had some esp's lying around, and I am wondering if it is possible to use them without the wifi stack, for direct communication between multiple esp8266 modules.
Anyone know if thats possible?


Thanks

You could use ESP-NOW ~
Code: Select allESP-NOW is a fast, connectionless communication technology featuring short packet
transmission. ESP-NOW is ideal for smart lights, remote control devices, sensors and other
applications.

Thanks!
But can it be used for longer and fast transmission?
Like a 320x240 video stream at 10fps?
