There is a video at the last page "it was really fun.
Me and my father had a great time.
We had a lot of fireworks.

The materials needed for this project.

These are the diagrams.
- Diagrams for begginers 1st picture.
- Web diagram 2nd picture.
- Schmeatic diagram for experienced optional .
 a. Receiver 3rd picture.
 b. Transmitter 4th picture.

Disassemble the car with a screw driver.

Take of the circuit, or you can make one.

Wind the antenna wire around the chopstick.

Take of the motors a replace the motor wirings with a relay.
Some cars are not powerful enough to detonate so I added mine a relay.
Adding a relay prevents the circuit from burning.

Use a thick wire for this but not too thick or else it will not burn just use the right thickness that your battery can burn again and again. Use a screw driver to wind on the screw driver. After making the coil epoxy it to the tip of a chop stick and connect a thick coated wire.

Connect the Battery, Coil and Relay in series.

Use a glue gun or epoxy to tuck everything in place.

Turn on everything and press the accelerate button at the remote the coil should become red without melting.

Have FUN !   :)
Please rate it 5 stars.

The coil can be use more than 100 times. Just don't press the remote to long
(just only 10 sec. max) or  it will burn the coil. Sound fun doesn't it. I'm with my father celebrating new year with it we even use it for a fountain fireworks.
