Buying a radio-controlled device today is not a problem. And a car, and a train, and a helicopter, and a quadcopter. But it is much more interesting to try to create a radio-controlled car with your own hands. We will provide you with two detailed instructions.
Model 1: what will we need?
To create this radio-controlled model you will need:
- Model car (you can even take an ordinary Chinese one from the market).
- Auto AGC.
- VAZ car door opening solenoid, battery 2400 Ah, 12 V.
- A piece of rubber.
- Radiator.
- Electrical measuring instruments.
- Soldering iron, solder to it, as well as locksmith tools.
- Reducer.
- Collector engine (for example, from a toy helicopter).
Model 1: instructions for making
And now let's start creating a radio-controlled car with our own hands:
- We will borrow the suspension for the car from the purchased model, supplementing it with a 12 V battery.
- To assemble the gearbox, you will need VAZ solenoids and ordinary plastic gears. To hang them, you need to make a threadboth on the body and on the studs. When assembled, the structure should be represented by a block - as in the photo.
- After you have assembled the gearbox, be sure to check its performance.
- Is everything okay? Then we install the elements in the case. It should look something like the next photo.
- Don't forget to install a heatsink - without it, the microcircuits will undoubtedly overheat. This element is fastened with bolts.
- The next step is the installation of microcircuits - the power driver and, in fact, the radio control. It will look like this.
- In conclusion, it remains to close the "insides" with the body of the model - and the radio-controlled car created by one's own hands is ready!
Model 2: Necessary accessories
To create a car you will need:
- Car model.
- Spare parts from an unnecessary collectible typewriter, printer (gears, rods, iron drives).
- Copper tubes (sold in hardware stores).
- Soldering iron.
- Auto enamel.
- Bolts.
- Equipment required.
- Battery.
Model 2: device creation
Let's start making a radio-controlled car with our own hands:
- Bridges and differentials are copper tubes soldered with a soldering iron. It will also require traction and iron drives fromtrophy, plastic gears (from the printer), so that in the end you get what is in the photo.
- If you don't know how to close the differentials, then use regular pill caps.
- Finally, the parts can be coated with car enamel.
- Now move on to the frame. If the model you bought has an iron one, then you are lucky, it is still better to replace the plastic one.
- Frames and tie rod are placed on the bridge. Soldering the latter can be difficult, so we advise you to mount it with bolts. Where can I get a tie rod? Again, borrow from an unnecessary collector's model.
- If you want to make a toy more than once, then all differentials are best installed on bearings.
- An excellent version of the gearbox is with a downshift, which the microcircuit will turn on already from the remote control.
- The next step is to install the bottom from the model. Cut a hole in it for the gearbox, engine, cardan shafts.
- This stage installs chips, shock absorbers, battery.
- The work is completed by painting the car in the desired color. Details, headlights, it is better to remove at this time. You can use regular plastic paint in multiple coats.
- For a retro look, sand painted surfaces after paintingsandpaper.
In conclusion, we will present you one of the drawings for radio-controlled car models - the receiver diagram.
Homemade RC car is a reality. Of course, making it from scratch will not work - develop your experience on simpler models.
