Ok so this is my first post on this forum and it's my very first project using arduino. So I was hoping to find some answer here on this forum. So bare with me if I don't explain my problem the best way.
Ok so for my first project I bought a RC car from Costco and bought a Arduino Yun for the WIFI capability. What I would like to achieve is this I want to be able to connect the arduino to the RC car and I would like to be able to control it using a tablet or a phone. On how to connect the car to the arduino I think I have my schematic laid out pretty good. The part that I am missing is this how do I connect to the car to control it. I read a bit and I'm pretty sure the Yun has a webserver onboard. Any explaination would be really great or links.
Thank you all for the help.
PS: Once I have that figured out I would like to add a USB webcam.
Sorry about the lack of information from my part. Since I’m pretty new to this i might have skip some details that would have helped you guys to help me.
Ok so here goes. I bought a rc car from costco. Yes it was a cheap one. I started to pull the car apart and there is 2 motors inside. I managed by using my Arduino Yun and the Adafruit MotorShield V2 to make the back wheels spin from 0 - 255 backward and foward and I manage to be able to go left by using the same code but on instead of being able to go from 0 - 255 it only worked from 150 - 200 and I have no clue why.
So now my questions are these.
1- Why is it that when I want to go to the left or the right from 0 - 149 all I hear is the motor buzzing but it’s not moving ( probably because the motor doesn’t get enought power before ) and from 150 - 200 it turns but not as smooth as when I used the remote contol ?
2- Still don’t understand how I’ll be able to be able to communicate to the car once I’m ready to go wireless.
Thank you for the help and I’ll try to post pictures of my project.
