I am fairly new with electronic components so it would be very appreciated if anyone could help me!
I am wanting a wireless device to turn a small electric motor on and off. So I guess this means that I would need a Transmitter and Receiver. I am not too fimiliar with wireless so I do not know what to buy. Do I need anything more than this receiver(link below) with the transmitter and a type of button for it? PLEASE HELP

that’s only 1/3 of the solution.
I’d suggest that or similar plus a Holtek encoder and decoder.
Simpler, (Sorry SFE) would be
modify this http://www.skylinkhomesecurity.com/wirdoorbeldb.html
or

or rip the guts out of one of those thumb-sized radio remote controlled cars with remote controller.
schematic of one end. Holtek makes encoders and decoders
