Want to be able to program and operate a servo from a key chain remote.
Looking for a spring type toggle switch on a remote key chain that will operate a servo in one direction and then back to neutral when the switch is released. Would like to be able to program the servo to move up to 180 degrees.
Can this be done ?
Many thanks for your help.
Hello
More info needed like
Processor
Remote (infrared or other)
if it is a infrared universal remote that can control Sony remotes and you are using a basic stamp 2 Parallax has code you can modify, if you can’t I could help if you give me some time as I am very busy
Regards
Hi CodeMaster;
Sorry, I do not know much about RC and how they work.
I do know, that an infrared remote will not work though as you will not be able to point it.
Has to be more like the remote lock/unlock/alarm key chain remote for your vehicle. Does not have to be a strong signal as it is only going a short distance.
Thanks
Do you have the keychain remote yet? Have you shopped around to see what’s available?
Yes, I have bought a number of different remotes, but it seems everybody at the local hobby stores keeps giving me different info.
The best thing that I have found that is close to exactly what I want is “New Bright R/C Touch” by New Bright Industrial Co., Ltd in China. I bought it at Toys-R-Us for $30.00, but still do not have enough knowledge on my own to figure out how it works. It has the following numbers on it: IC:9650A-1629B, Model 1629B1, 925.0 MHz
Any way to get the manual for it on here? Gotta know what it is before we can help you interface to it. lol 
Did it happen to come with an RC car?
hello
what prossesor are you useing
regards
hi
do you have a link to the manual as i cant find it
regards
hello
i have been look and thinking and if you mean by a key chain remote the type that opens your garage or gate the is some simple tech and code(at least i think) that will get the job done
first i have looked at the newbright site and i think a cheap rc car is not the way to go ,better i think is the wireless gate tx and rx with a basic prossesor could work better and cleaner
i will do more digging and see
regards
Thank you, Will wait.
I have taken the New Bright Car apart and it is all there own circuit board.
You should be able to hack the PC board in the car to get signals when you press the buttons. Then it’s a simple matter of connecting it to a microcontroller. Piece of cake. 
hello
as Jim Frye said it might work as for me i would use somthing like the future kit 436 uhf remote control relay 1 channel or connect something similer to the microcontroller will look at the state of the relay if it is closed the microcontroller sends the 1500 pulsout to the servo or when it is open it sends the 2500 pulsout to the servo or something like that still havent heard anthing about the microcontroller you are useing

hi
if you want to do it with the car you can do it easy with the steering if it has 2 electromagnets on right and left with a perment magnit on the steering it will be the same as the relay but with the left magnet wires when you turn left the electromagnet turns on ,turning the car left the high will be red and the same as the relay
