- This will be the steering for the hoveround power chair go kart. being that it didn't have a steering wheel I didn't want to put one on it, so this was my solution. I used a h-bridge, voltage converter, servo and transmitter and receiver. Doing this you could make any go kart or other things remote control. This is a how to remote control go kart/ high torque servo.
Thanks for making. I am a High school Tech teacher building a large scale RC 2 stroke powered Go-Kart with my students...and I believe what you have built will be the answer to the RC side. Thanks again
Awesome, that is great to hear! If there is any way i can help just let me know. You can message us on Facebook at Fireandgasoline13 or Instagram @Fireandgasoline13 and i can send you a wiring diagram.
Wow I would have never think that you could make remotely controlled steering could work as well as you got. Great job
Thanks Frankie! It was complicated to understand but easy once i did. You could literally remote control anything this way.
With all of the weight of an engine and the wheels actually touching the ground does the the servo still work
I've seen others use this method, but I'm anxious to see how this one performs when it's complete! :D
I have seen a high torque servo made but not actually used on a go kart, also none of them explained exactly how it was done.
Fire And Gasoline The vids I saw don't even exist any more! That's how long ago...
pre tinning the leads prior if a life saver at times!!! good stuff!!!
thanks for this my man i got a ebay 3 pack adjustable voltage boxes all ready 400 watt and 1/ 1500 watt booster
Wish the Wiring diagram was available. But still killer set up man.
Thanks for the idea with the windscreen wiper motor as a servo but could do with some refinement with some gear wheels to the servo potentiometer which would give you much smoother & precise steering then a pice of stiff wire, Nice job regardless.
I made it work, anyone is welcome to take my idea and improve on it. I actually hope people do exactly that. I definitely dont know everything but if i can pass along what i do know and it helps someone than it was worth making the vid. Thanks for watching Anthony! Maybe check out some of our other vids and consider subscribing. We also have vids of this working and riding th-cam.com/play/PLrRQq5MNqlLotGKKRjx5hGl_oFDGrV0Vg.html
Your intro is the best
Thanks! 🔥🤟🔥
Solid cheap build! Love it.
dude hell yeah man. mad props for the hack. this is perfect. making a Lawn mower power wheels XD
Awesome, glad it helped you out. The setup works great, we put out a video a couple weeks ago testing it if you want to check it out.🔥
nice-I watched all and i put a like on this too
Thanks Richard!
Congratulation. Great job. I am projecting something like that. I have a drone radio and I want to controller one scooter with it. I have one problem: how the correct servo to use because I don’t know how many torque the servo must to have. You project is awesome. Keep going
Nice video. Did you delete the parts list from discription or can you give links please? Edit... parts at end of video. Thanks
Another question, are you gonna need a 12V battery to run the wiper motor? What do you plan on using? Just a 11.1 Lopo?
Thank you for this awesome video!!!!! Could you please tell me what you used for the H bridge?
The one i used is an IBT-2 arduino. If there is anything else i can help with feel free to message me. Thanks for watching!
@@FireAndGasoline does this have to be programmed like some of the other arduino things? Thank you for the help!!
@@americanboathead5390 no you pretty much wire it up and go. If you message me on Facebook at Fireandgasoline13 or Instagram @fireandgasoline13 i can send you a wiring diagram.
Hi, I loved the way you designed the kart. Great job. Is there anyway you could share the wiring diagram?
Message us on Facebook or Instagram and i can send it to you.
@@FireAndGasoline Done. Messaged in FB. Thank you.
@@samratroy1487hey do you still happen to have the Wiring diagram by chance?
if using fpv drone controller and antennas it can be driven remotely from long range (5 10 km)?
@yamashe8480 yes i imagine it would, could also integrate the camera to see where its going.
@@FireAndGasoline I wonder if this is what Ukrainians and Russians are using in their ground drones
That is very cool!
Thanks! The uses of this are endless, could literally remote control anything.
Hi, great job!!
I try to made the same project, with the same transmitter and bts7960, the only difference is the motor, it's not wiper motor, is a 12vdc motor with 27Rpm, and before I link the servo arm to the motor arm, I had to find the center of the servo, because the motor didn't stop, after that, I link the two arms, and when I move the steering, the motor don't come back to the center, and I'm don't know what it's wrong!!!
Can you give me some advice/help??
Regards
Great video. I was tried this, but with a smaller much cheaper servo. And get lots if noise from the servo, and kept giving the motor input when it wasn't needed. Burning the motor. Do u think that a better servo might help me on this?. Thanks..
You may have had something wired incorrectly or not adjusted so that the servo was telling the motor to move constantly. If not perhaps a better servo would help. Haven't had any issues with mine.
Nice idea for a kart with wheelchair to for a kid with steering wheel adjustable ps2 controller and arduino ;)
Thanks Juan! We recently did the first testing of it in a video and the full test with seat and fully assembled will be out soon.
how did you connect the red wires (they have an order)
im going to try this but with 3d printed parts and to a shopping cart...hoping it wont break quick
Awesome, good luck!
How could I control this same 775 dc motor on smartphone by using aurdino plz send details about it and aurdino coding
I honestly couldn't tell you anything about coding. I know it could be done but not sure how. Perhaps you could buy a different board that is already programmed to be controlled by smartphone. Like something that would be in a rc drone. You would need to do some research to see if that could work. As far as coding there may be other youtubers that have vids on that. Thanks for watching!
Friend, It is very good and I want to do something similar for a personal project, could you share the diagrams with me?
Message us on Facebook at FireAndGasoline13 and i will get them to you soon as possible. Thanks for watching!
Hey, how to use a potentiometer instead of a receiver to make it work manually by hand...?
Thanks
That H bridge is a fire hazard, the heatsink needs taking off and a thermal pad putting under it as there is nothing but the anodised layer on the heatsink electrically isolating the two driver IC's.
if they make contact with each other, especially at high current, you will have a very bad day.
It has thermal paste on it and its only running at 12vDC it dosen't even get hot. Have rode it for numerous hours and its just fine. Even if the entire system burnt up its only $80 in parts total so not a huge loss. Thanks for watching Steve! Here are videos of it working: th-cam.com/video/T5xMn2v7UGc/w-d-xo.html
@@FireAndGasoline thermal paste is not good enough, you need a thermal pad that will provide proper electrical isolation!
The two IC's have electrically conductive though holes and the only thing stopping the two IC's from shorting out on the heatsink is the Anodized layer.
If the two make contact with each other it will let the magic smoke out of the H bridge in a catastrophic way and potentially the rest of your wiring too.
Take your heat sink off and stick a meter on the two IC's through holes where the heatsink normally sits and run your motor back and forth, you will see why it needs to have a proper electrical isolation and only luck is preventing it shorting out!
i hook up one but cant get much power to motor stalls out easy any help
Did you use the same parts as in the video? Motor could be weak, battery could be weak?
I need to do this for a project of mine. Do I need a brushed or brushless motor for the driver? Sorry, i am a total newbie.
I used a brushed wiper motor from an 88 buick but any motor should work the same. I believe brushed motors produce more torque so depending on what you are doing, they should also be lower cost. Thanks for watching, maybe check out some of our other vids.
Anyone got any idea on making a servo saver for a application of this size I built a rc car like this years ago and took it apart to reengineering with suspension but it’s been on hold do to no time and could not find a way to make a servo saver that I’m happy with
So if anyone have a idea please share
Also like the way you wired the motor good work
I dont believe it needs one atleast how i have this set up. It wouldn't be hard to make though. You would just need the rod to have springs on each side of the servo and the rod to be able to slip on the servo mount. Then the springs would take the shock out of it. Thanks for watching, maybe check out some of our other vids and consider subscribing!
Not able to understand where you've connected those wires
Message me on Facebook at Fireandgasoline13 pr Instagram @fireandgasoline13 amd i can send you a diagram. Thanks for watching!
Can the RC steering with servo work for a rack and pinion steering?
It could but you would need to change a few things. Instead of the arm on the wiper motor to the steering knuckle you would need to use gears. You would determine the turns to lock from center and come up with a gear ratio that would end up 1:1 at the wiper motor. It will take some extra work and figuring but definitely possible.
Bondia amigo fis igual seu fico muito bom, porem usei um sque pra alimenta oreceptor ou seja entra 12vt no squi sai 6vt pea receptor so qui ta teavando o servo do acelerado jactroquei imesmo assim trava oqui pod ser vc ligo 5vt da pwm em qual canal do receptor
Hi guys, I've messaging the Facebook page for the wiring diagram on this one. Does anyone have a copy on maybe a google drive file or something so i can also see? Thanks!
I’ve been working on my hover round R/C car for a couple years now since I started it, but about a year and a half ago it go put on the back burner cuz I couldn’t figure out how to wire up a wiper motor to a servo. There’s a few videos out there that try to help, but I’m so electronic illiterate I still couldn’t figure it out. I was hoping your video was gonna help me out finally, but you don’t describe what wire you’re soldering to what wire...? Also you can’t see with your arm in the way what colors you have in your hand. So once again my hover round tubbed out Mercades power wheel will sit in my front room as a decoration piece.
Im not even sure how to respond to you. If you are saying this project has is taking too long feel free to send money or parts to finish it. If you actually watched the video you would have atleast some understanding of how i did this. The wire colors dont matter as its just spare wire i had laying around. The only thing i didn't show was the connections to the h-bridge, wich i offered to send to anyone that messages me. I don't really make anything off my vids, i just do this to help and entertain people. Dont like it, dont watch it. My setup works, i have had quite a few people send me pics and vids of the projects they made using my dirrections so they cant be all that bad. If you are serious and actually want help maybe come back with a better comment.
Fire And Gasoline I’m not trying to sound like a dick, I was hoping to get more info from your video so I can finish my project that I started 2 years ago, but you aren’t really clear on what wire goes with what wire. Yo just say we’ll solder this wire here to this wire here, and your hand or arm is in the way and I can’t see what colors the wires you’re using. I’ll get my setup back from the guy that was supposed to help me last year and hasn’t, and I’ll let you know what colors the 5 wires are coming out of my wiper motor and etc.
Could you please email me a wiring diagram and a list of any other key parts that you used. Would be much appreciated thanks
Everything i used was listed in this video, you can message me on Facebook at Fireandgasoline13 or Instagram @fireandgasoline13 and i can give you a wiring diagram. You will still need to follow the instructions in the video for it to work as i did it. Thanks for watching!
Can you send the wiring diagram??
My power wires are getting hot and soft. Why?
May be drawing too much current, may need larger gauge wiring.
Could i use a 150w motor from a electric scooter instead of the wiper motor?
Any DC motor should work.
Wouldnt it just keep spinning when holding in either direction is that why you added the servo at 15mins so it will only go so far left and so far right
@@fbomb2834 correct and to return it back to a center position.
Ok i seen another video of the pid inside the servo mount that to the top of the motor gear flat side ..then it should do the same thing going to try both ways thanks and good work on your video helped me out alot .. Building a giant ford rc truck using a 49cc bike motor with clutch on back to push start it or electric start .
@@fbomb2834 it should work either way, glad we could help. Sounds like it will be an awesome build!
What type of voltage converter
Its a buck converter. 12 to 24vDC input and 6vDC output. I showed a pic of the ebay listing in this video if you go back and look. Thanks for watching!
How much to sell me the set up you have I'm really interested please
Im not sure that im ready to sell it but everything has a price. I put these videos out there to help others and to pass on my little bit of knowledge.
Could you provide a link for parts need purchased? Interested or would you consider selling a “prototype” have a 90cc quad I want to remote control for my son
#💩electricplasticcarsfromwalmart🤮 thank you
I dont have links as there are many options for sellers on Ebay. I did show pics and descriptions of everything used in the video and I can provide you with a wiring diagram for the h-bridge. You will have to message us on Facebook at Fireandgasoline13 or Instagram @fireandgasoline13 so I can send it to you. This setup does work you can see it used in our remote control power chair go kart vids, check them out. Thanks for watching! 🔥
First
Thanks TJ!
I just subscribe. Check out my RC home made gokart that I did. I still didn’t test ride it yet but it looks promising.i might need your help if the turning doesn’t work out.i might have to put a windshield motor.
I checked out your vid, great job.
Fire And Gasoline one year later and I finish it😂.When are you guys going live again?
Just wanted to say awesome video mate, have sent you a message on FaceBook, if you could send me the wiring diagram that would be fantastic. Keep up the great work!
