Can you enhance the 1st pic anymore? It’s too fuzzy to correctly make out many of the components on the PCB. As an electronics tech I am very interested in seeing the electonics package used.

No, I can’t enhance it easily - but it’s easy enough for me to see.

It’s just a couple 1206 surface mount resistors and a couple surface mount caps.

The two thru-hole caps on the bottom are a tantalum (yellow) and a large (blown-up) electrolytic - those are used to stabilize the power supply.

Not enough to figure out what it does.

Someone (probably an RC enthusiast) will recognize the exact board outlines.

Yes, definitely higher resolution pic of the second one. Looks like there are some SMT tactile pushbuttons on it? Or they may be power transistor packages? Could be an RC model receiver of some make. The first pic looked like cheap massed produced toy electronics.
