RC Car Automation

  Jon Bennett from JBProjects.net has just completed his latest creation. He purchased a cheap $9 remote control car, added a bit of electronics and now has a car that allows complete control using an Arduino. He has PWM control over the motors to give the car some refined control. All of the code has been made available so you could make your own.
