Hello.
I would like to make an rc car usint the NRF24L01 transciever module.
I already have a 2.4ghz transmitter. can I programme the NRF24L01 to receive the signals from my transmitter, or do I need an NRF24L01 transciever module controlled by arduino as a transmitter.
I was just needing to know if I should buy two transciever modules or just one.
Thank you.

It will be much easier to get two nRF24s. Actually it would be wise to buy at least three just in case you have any doubt that one of them is not working.
I think some off-the-shelf 2.4GHz transmitters use Nordic wireless devices (and some use Cypress devices which can't communicate with a Nordic device). Even if you have one that uses a Nordic wireless trying to figure out how to talk to it would take so long it would not be worth the trouble just to save the £2 cost of an extra nRF23.
I use nRF24s for wireless control of model trains.
Thank you
Just one other question:
Is the module in the following image just the antenna, or both the antenna and the transciever module in one?
Here is the Image:
Thank you again.
Loking forward to my project!

No idea, you've not said what "my transmitter" is....

It is the antenna and transceiver module in one. Note the 8 pin connector on the near end
What range do you want for your wireless link? For indoor use you probably don't need a high-power nRF24.
