  • This video shows how you can increase the voltage of a cheap RC car that way making it go faster. This wont work for all cases, but if your car is operating at something around 4,5V, than this might work for you.

      Brandon Morin No. Math like this is not subjective. 10 volts is 33% more than 7.5 volts. And 7.5 volts is 25% less than 10 volts. In this case whoever corrected it to 25% is wrong in correcting the poster. Seems to me whoever corrected him must be fun at parties.

      If you connect a 3.7V lipo instead of three 1.5V regular batteries (total 4,5V), the car will go slower, because the voltage is lower, if we suppose that the batteries are charged. You have to increase the voltage above 4,5V, to increase the speed, but under 6V to avoid damaging the car.

      Theoretically that is possible. Not the best approach, but possible. Only you have to have a resistor with the necessary resistance and power rating, because it will conwert that excess power into heat.

    @kokodin5895 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    from the schematic you can clearly see that microcontroller voltage is clamped to 2,7v by a zener diode and resistor network regardless of the battery voltage
    and the weakest part is actually h brodge used to drive the motors, because that is the part exposed to the full battery voltage
    h bridge is either 2 pair of transistors, or an integrated circuit
    you could buffer the h bridge by adding higher current bridhe on the output of the oryginal one , or just after the controller ic outpur

    • @shortcutelectronics
      @shortcutelectronics  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess you found that circuit from that microcontrollers datasheet that I mentioned in my video, but you should know that that circuit does not represent my situation. In my case the motor is directly connected to the microcontroller pins and the H bridge components are missing for this car. Good observation though and that is true in case if this car would have a H bridge.
