@@peytonharrison4665 So I got scared when I got to the point of adding lawn mower blades, but I built an epic RC wheelchair. Bought an esp32 to control it and programmed it with Arduino code. And there's a library that allows you to easily send inputs from a PS3 controller to the esp. The wheelchair's joystick was easy to emulate because it was just 10 different resistance steps in x and y directions (like a potentiometer but with discrete steps). This might vary with different wheelchairs. It's hilarious how the wheelchair can send full power instantly to the wheels, so you can do skids and "burnouts" with it but the top speed is about the same.
I finally built one of these. Its great :) Although it lacks traction of any kind... I was thinking of drilling out the solid tire and using threaded bolts as tire studs..Maybe even bolting a small angle iron on each. I use mine to control a mower and pull a yard wagon around.
I need to know how you did this? I am a leg amputee in a wheelchair but still drive. I could use this to get my powerchair from the rear of the vehicle to the front so i can get on it.
looked like a sabertooth motor controller there are several good builds here on youtube .. some are dedicated mowers. I buy up all the older power chairs I can find around town bad batteries and trashed plastic and worn out seats .. im also disabled and I have 3 acres .. so getting some robotic mowers is on the todo list :) ..
Niset Khmer hey Niset am a student working on a similar project and would like to know more about what you replacement ed from the original wheelchair. please contact me back ASAP at amoakojoseph98@gmail.com. thank you
hello good afternoon! I'm Brazilian and I really need information. I use a motorized wheelchair, model Millenium C from the Freedom brand. If you google it you will see which wheelchair I am talking about. This wheelchair is imported and assembled in Brazil and sold by the Freedom brand. I need to know what model of wheelchair is sold abroad. I will be very grateful for your help.
I'm making the same thing but using 6 motors of electric wheelchair motors from heavy duty 750lbs weight limit wheelchairs all on 1 frame. Gonna slap a couple large robotic arms on mine and a trailer hook up to move my boat and atv trailer around should have plenty of power for that
I just bought a couple last weekend. Wanna make a trailer tug out of one. Some chairs have a rising pedistal for the seat thea a trailer ball could be attached to and lifted up into a trailer hitch.
I found one of these in a pawn shop (The whole Chair) It is identical to yours. it is called a "Quantum" something or other. The batteries are no good and they want 100 dollars for it. (with the charger). I think I will go get it tomorrow after work.
Present 🙋👍 YES!! My research brought me to this. I have a wheelchair joystick wasted. Remote control! Dog doo doo removals is my goal😁I'm serious as sh... Anyway,thanks for showing me torque for turds! I'm serious were do I and how do I gethem guts for my jazzy 1113? 🧐
In 2015 I was hit by a car in my power wheel chair. I and the wheel chair were pretty much destroyed. While I was still in rehab for my injuries the police dept called and said I had to get the remains of my chair or they were going to auction it off. I begged for someone to go and get it for me and nobody would go. It would have been a cool project but oh well. I have a new chair now so I'm happy although I sure would have had fun with that project.
nice video I happened to have a wheelchair base of my own that I have done the same thing with except I use regular RC and my motor controller is from dimension engineering. for those of you that like this idea this person has done go to instructables.com and look for user mouse0079, I have information in my instructable of the cheapest way to build a radio controlled wheelchair base if you need more info on it just send me an email from there.
Got one of these for $25 from an estate sale recently... going to be a fun rc lawn mower project!
late reply, but any updates? want to build one for my mowing business 😅

@@frederickschulze8014 got a step by step type of thing for this? Currently attempting to do something like this to tow around my trailers

I put treads on mine, finally got traction i needed
Can you post a Amazon link for the controller?
Exactly what I'm looking for, please show how and what you did to accomplish this.
Great video. You should do an overview of you build.
I have the exact same chair. Thanks for the inspiration to find a purpose for it.
I finally got mine completed. Hopefully I have time to make a video as well

Perhaps it could become a powered wheel barrow?
You just gave me a mower idea
Would love to know how to do this but would need a parts list and instruction manual?
very cool. i am paralyzed & have an old Chair to use to make one of these. can you post links to the parts you used to control the chair.
I tell you what, if you make one, build it so it can tow a push mower behind it and make it cut your grass!
My buddy made a lawn mower out of one of these. Remote control
unfortunately no info on how it was done. Looks like relay control only
What controller did you use
0:15 parts of electrical brakes ??
yes
Maybe use this to tow something 🤔
Imagine this as an excellent snow shovel! Keep those batteries maintained, those MK's (gel-cells) are expensive to replace.
+Lee Carrillo It is a snow blower, see my videos.

What did you use to make it wireless like that

hi
please make a video to show what all required to put this together.
Hello.
Where do you get the SpeedController? I cant find a 24V Controller.
Look on ebay, there are dozens of them fro 3 amp up to 100 amp at 24 volt . The 60 amp one is £12.99.
I found one of these in a pawn shop (The whole Chair) It is identical to yours. it is called a "Quantum" something or other. The batteries are no good and they want 100 dollars for it. (with the charger). I think I will go get it tomorrow after work.

Just mounted my tig welder and cooler on top one just like this..
Any way to contact you?
You think this can tow a boat lol?

:( glad you are OK though after that..
I would’ve been fired up if no one went and helped get the remains of the chair
Great job.
Mount a seat on it a tell people to try to stay on lol
Dude u reversed forward and backward
Can it carry 120 pounds and a chair? ;-)
it could carry 300 pounds
Are you speaking in 3rd person? "Sam, are you gonna watch football team dat never win or design remote control car?" Hehe.
Thanks man

mouseinthefalls I looked on instructables can't find you or info on rc wheelchair build. can you forward your electronuc materials list? thanks.
mouseinthefalls I’m looking to make my wheelchair base controlled by remote also, but I’m stuck with the ‘how’. Please help
watching sports is the lame sand gayest shit ever.. building and tinkering are badass
