If you are REALLY new you

If you are REALLY new you want want to start with something easier with a well written walkthrough like START HERE.

That being said take a remote control car apart and using a multimeter find out which button on the remote control sends voltage through which wires. You can then use that to hook up to a PICAXE (or other PIC) and create your own outputs to motors, lights, etc.

Last night I decided to read
Last night I decided to read through the entire thread about disabling new memberships. I never commented on it as to how I feel as a new person here, but anyway, I think it’s people that ask these questions that drive those types of discussions.

Whoa, Addy…

Sorta not-cool, yo. This isn’t some “I’ll write my whole post in text-speak” kinda post, which drives me nuts… This is some random guy in India who just thinks robots are cool and wants to participate. Heaven forbid that the dude’s first language is not English! Not to mention (and I have traveled in India) I’ll bet he probably speaks 3 or 4 languages… He speaks Hindi, English, probably French AND his local dialect. Christ, you are in bi-lingual Canada and I’ll bet you don’t even speak French!

Do your next post in Hindi, give the guy a chance to laugh at you.

Actually, my family is indian, so I do understand gujrati fairly well. I’m not talking about this guy’s english skills, I’m saying he should try typing a little better. Fingers on the right keys and whatnot.

Fair enough…
Sorry I bit a little hard, there…

and one dout i always have if we make a simple moter car if we want to take a right turn how can we do? is its possible without any chip or any program ?

sorry for bad english

Your English is excused

Let’s try first to get your question right.

Reading your comment from today. I understand that you are hoping to build this:

  • A car, or car like vehicle. How big do you need this car to be? Toy size? Small aid in the garden? Full size car for in the streets?
  • Powered by electricity.
  • Electricity from then main power grid, which is Alternating Current (AC).
  • With two electric motors.
  • Which implies you want to steer it by means of “differential drive”. That’s tech speak for turning the vehicle by giving different amounts of power to each motor. More power on the left motor will make the car turn right.
  • No batteries at all? What about a very long power cord?
  • No wireless control, but also no driver on board. So would a control box on a wire be OK?
  • As simple as possible: not even a micro controller.

I think it can be done. The big problem will be speed control. You will need motors that run on mains power (230 V where I live). Like power drills, depending on the size of car you want.

For smaller toy cars, you are probably better off using Direct Current (DC) motors. But you need to transform your high voltage down to low voltage and rectify the AC to DC. Not only is that much safer, it also makes it much easier and cheaper to find the parts you need for a project like that.

Please let us know if we are on the right track here.

All cheap tamiya stuff that should be available at your local hobby shop. Stick it all to a base of your choice. Get any wall plug that outputs 5v or less and wire it into the remote control. Bobs-yer-uncle diy remote control car.

And if any of that would NOT be available

Ezekiel is probably right about all the Tamiya stuff. But if ordering over the Internet is a problem and you happen to live too far away from shops that sell these parts, you have a different challenge.

Please inform us of your possibilities and options. Are there any model builders shops around?What is your experience in building things? What (if you don’t mind me asking) is your age?

There must be some old toys you can recycle? Or maybe old power tools? Did you know that really small motors are in most cell phones and pagers? And batteries too. And they come with chargers that plug into the wall. That’s half your problems sorted out.

Don’t worry about steering until you’ve got the driving accomplished.

If you can’t order off the

If you can’t order off the internet, like rik mentioned, I would recommend scrapping toy cars. The remote control cars for kids. I went to a thrift store and for $3 I got a small r/c car with no controller, but I took the steering assembly out as well as the drive motor. I even used the battery holder out of it.

It´s a toy car hacking little project, the car goes in the direction of light sources.
I know you don´t want to use any microcontoller, but it can serve as inspiration.

Good luck and Namaste :slight_smile:
