Controlling 10 servos using an IR receiver and PCA9685

Projects Programming

I would like to be able to control 10 servos using an IR receiver. After doing a bit of research I decided to get an Arduino Uno, IR receiver/remote, PCA9685, and the other necessary equipment. I would like to not have to get more supplies and would like to keep the hardware as small as possible. I was able to assemble the hardware but the coding was stumping me.
I can control each individual servo but would like to control all 10. Please help me write code that can connect all the servos to the arduino
Here is my code.

 #include <IRremote.h>
#include <Servo.h>
int IRpin = 11;  // pin for the IR sensor
IRrecv irrecv(IRpin);
decode_results results;
Servo Rkneecap;
Servo Lkneecap;
Servo RhipL;
Servo LhipL;
Servo RhipU;
Servo LhipU;
Servo Rshoulder;
Servo Lshoulder;
Servo Relbow;
Servo Lelbow;
void setup()
{
 Serial.begin(9600);
 irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
 Rshoulder.attach(9);  // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object
}
void loop() 
{
 if (irrecv.decode(&results)) 
   {
     irrecv.resume();   // Receive the next value
   }
   
   //STAND (>||)
   //left knee cap
    if (results.value == 16712445)  // change according  to your IR remote button number
    {
    //left knee cap
      Lkneecap.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left hip lower
      LhipL.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left hip upper
      LhipU.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left elbow
      Lelbow.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left shoulder
      Lshoulder.write(90);
    delay(0);
    
    //right knee cap
      Rkneecap.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //right hip lower
      RhipL.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //right hip upper
      RhipU.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //right elbow
      Relbow.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //right shoulder
      Rshoulder.write(90);
    delay(0);
    }
    


    
    //WALK FORWARD (VOL+)
    //left knee cap
    if (results.value == 16736925)  // change according  to your IR remote button number
    {
    //right shoulder
      Rshoulder.write(70);
    delay(0);
    //right knee cap
      Rkneecap.write(80);
    delay(0);
    //right hip lower
      RhipL.write(130);
    delay(0);
    //left elbow
      Lelbow.write(130);
    delay(0);
    //left hip lower
      LhipL.write(105);
    delay(500);           //2:00

    //right shoulder
      Rshoulder.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //right elbow
      Relbow.write(60);
    delay(0);
    //right hip lower
      RhipL.write(80);
    delay(0);
    //right knee cap
      Rkneecap.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left shoulder
      Lshoulder.write(100);
    delay(0);
    //left elbow
      Lelbow.write(120);
    delay(0);
    //left hip lower
      LhipL.write(55);
    delay(0);
    //left knee cap
      Lkneecap.write(30);
    delay(500);           //2:15
    
    //right elbow
      Relbow.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //right knee cap
      Rkneecap.write(160);

      RhipL.write(120);
    delay(0);
    //left knee cap
      Lkneecap.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left shoulder
      Lshoulder.write(90);
    delay(0);
    //left elbow
      Lelbow.write(130);
    delay(0);
    //left hip lower
      LhipL.write(90);
    delay(0);             //3:00
    }
    //PUNCH RIGHT (FUNC/STOP)
    if (results.value == 16769565)  // change according  to your IR remote button number
    {
    //right shoulder
      Rshoulder.write(180);
    delay(0);  
    //right elbow
      Relbow.write(140);
    delay(0);
    }
    //PUNCH LEFT (ON)
    if (results.value == 16753245)  // change according  to your IR remote button number
    {
    //left elbow
      Lelbow.write(180);
    delay(0);
    //left shoulder
      Lshoulder.write(140);
    delay(0);
    }
}


Here is a picture of my robot robot - Album on Imgur
The servos would be hooked up to the PCA 9685.
My end goal is to build a robot that I can control with a remote.

Whoa, slow down. too soon to begin thinking of code. Please write down all the individual movements you want each servo to make. And then write down all the combination movements you want to make. Perhaps then some coding logic can be though about.

Thank you all so much. These comments have helped me grow with my Arduino knowledge. I was able to find a library that had what I needed.
