Hello everyone, long time member/fan of the EZ-Robot, just been admiring in the shadow. During the thanksgiving break had a few hours downtime so finally decided to complete ( will never be complete) my long time project of converting an R/C truck to an EZ-robot truck. Now that the IoTiny have been release to the general public, figure it will be a great platform for it. I am using a regular EZ-B v4/1 for now until the loTiny are back in stock.
I Removed and replaced the rear motor with a bigger motor /tire combo, kept original steering wheel motor ( not a servo).
Android app currently using an Asus Zenphone 2 which have a 5.5" screen real estate. The movements button are all scripted to tailor the the custom R/C steering platform.
script for steering control is nothing fancy ex:
[#ForwardRight
Enter the ON/OFF for the second HBridge to move
the direction for this script.
PWM(d0, 35) PWM(d1, 100) Set(d2, off) Set(d3, on) Set(d4, off) Set(d5, on) Sleep( 1500) Release (d5) ]
Parts List
Salvage New Bright R/C truck 3X ultrasonic sensor (HC - SR04) H-bridge controller (L298N) Voltage Regulator (LM2596) Red led for rear White led (front) 1x Micro servo (Y-axis) 1x standard servo (X-axis) EZ-Camera Several servo extension cable 7.2 V 5300mAh lipo battery 4-in-1 Orientation Sensor
