How to Make an Easy RC Car

This is a Arduino remote control car.

Tools:

• Rokits Smart kit (from robolink.com)
• Scissors

Materials:

• Cardboard
• Crackers box

• Start by cutting out your crackers box into any car shape you want. I made mine a cab.

• Take your Rokit Smart kit and open it up.
• Take your two-wheeler Motors and put them inside your cab (look at the picture above if you don't know what a wheel motor is). Screw-off the wheels if the wheels are on.
• Draw a circle on the outside of the vehicle as big as the thing that I'm pointing to in the picture.
• Cut out the circle and put the thing that I am pointing to through the hole.
• Then screw back on the wheels
• Use prestik to stick down the motors

• Now it is time to put on your Arduino keyboard or board (look at the picture to see what I mean).
• Plug-in the battery thingy to the Arduino keyboard and put in the batteries.

• Take your two black wheels from your Rokit Smart kit
• Take two bolts and two nuts
• Make two holes in the two sides in the front of your vehicle
• Put your bolts through the wheels and put it through the hole
• Cut out two squares of cardboard and put the bolt through them to.
• Put your nuts on the back of both your bolts and screw them on but be careful not to screw them on too tight.

• Take your wires from the Motors and put them in your Arduino board
• The right motor should go into M1 and the left motor should go into M2
• Then take your Arduino board and switch it on
• Then make the Blue lights go to number six (look on a photo to see what I mean)
• Selected and then for blue lights should go on
• Use the remote control to go forward and backward
• Make sure your remote control is always looking at the Arduino board
• Push function one on your controller to make it go faster and function two on your controller to make it go slower
