Johnny Five robot RC

Hello there, I’m new here I need some help/advice. I have a Johnny 5 robot toy from the movie Short Circuit, I have done a few mods to it but the only thing I want to do is to make it RC but I literally have no idea of how to do or what to use to do it. When it comes to electronics I have no idea.

Any help would be fantastic

Hi JayLuke,

There are a lot of possibilities, it depend on what kind of space is available inside and how the robot is done.
Do you have pictures of the internal ? Do you know if there are two motors (one for each track) ?

You could use a R/C compatible motor controller to get it controlled with a R/C system.

Does this robot have motors and tracks already or it’s just a show thing ?
If it doesn’t have anything already it might be almost impossible to convert it to a R/C platform.
