Overview

The Evil Crow RF V2 is an open-source radiofrequency security research platform designed for penetration testers, red team operators, and cybersecurity enthusiasts. Built around the ESP32 microcontroller, it combines dual CC1101 sub-GHz transceivers with an NRF24L01 2.4GHz module to cover a wide range of RF attack and analysis scenarios.

The two CC1101 modules can be independently configured to transmit or receive on different frequencies simultaneously, enabling real-time signal capture and replay across the 300-348MHz, 387-464MHz, and 779-928MHz bands. The NRF24L01 module extends capabilities into the 2.4GHz range, supporting mousejacking and other wireless keyboard/mouse attacks. The device ships with a web-based control interface accessible over WiFi, allowing configuration of RX/TX parameters, signal logging, and jammer operation from any browser.

Evil Crow RF V2 stores captured signals on a microSD card and serves a responsive web panel at evilcrow-rf.local for real-time control. The firmware is fully open source and written in Arduino/C++, with an active community producing alternative ROMs that add features like BLE mobile app control, RF spectrum visualization, and Flipper Zero .sub file compatibility. The aluminum case variant provides durability and RF shielding for field use.
