This is an RC car I built. It’s pretty quick, as you can see in the video. It’s easy to build, despite its complicated looks. Here are the basic steps:

Cut a base out of balsa wood, making sure to cut away parts for the front wheels.

Mount the front wheels, including the servo.

Mount a fan on the back wheels and mount those.

Rig up a servo arm to press a switch; that will be the GO button. Have that switch turn a relay, which then feeds power from the main battery to the fan. Mount it.

Mount the relay battery and the fan battery.

Mount the receiver, and hook up the servos.

Attach the batteries for the receiver.

And that’s about it! Thanks for reading.

A typical household has so many audio video entertainment systems wich are often placed in different rooms. I would like to create a system which enables all the devices to seamlessly connect to each other. This will help in making the best use of all my systems.

I am making a radio that transmits video and audio coversation with all your friends within 10 miles. You can also send morse code and typed text. I think that this could soon develope into the replacement of internet at a cheaper cost.
