Autonomous RC Car Drifting

17

 

This RC Car project shows you the perfect method of allowing your RC car to get a drifting workout without you having to do all the work!

"The Autonomous Drifter spawned from a project/tutorial suggestion in the forums. Namely from Simplywel. In the most simplest of terms, it’s a hacked rc car, but really only the remote control has been hacked. The car itself wasn’t altered in any way. A microcontroller inside the controller allows your computer to give commands to the remote which controls the car. Using some simple automation we get an Autonomous Drifter!"

  4. I was sure I seen the word ‘drifting’ in the title ????


  5. pretty weak drift.


  6. I’m not sure I would call that an autonomous vehicle. It’s more of a remote control car recorder. From what I saw, he drives the car around(with plastic wheels on a tile floor) and then it replays what he did. :-/




  10. well that sucked.
    and it wasnt even a decent rc car.


  11. hi, i am wondering if you can describe in more detail the transmitter and the board that you are using – and what programming code are you using to make the car autonomous?
    i want to try to make this but i’m not sure how to start (beyond the r/c car).
    thanks,
    zak


  13. Weak drift but funny…this one it’s like a show.


  14. This is very good. Must say, a very clever piece of kit. I think a fun idea would be to beable to control your rc car my pc or laptop, have a camera attached to your rc car and drive it anywhere you want from the comfort of your chair!

    Worth thinking about…

  15. Thats Great!

    I did happen to notice right at the end someone chassing after it was that part of the project =D


  16. Hi Nitro,

    I think the car went evil and was about to take over the world. It had to be stopped. 🙂
