• 【DIY】How to make 1:150 micro RC Car

  This video demonstrates how to modify the TOMYTEC "THE Car Collection" 1/150 TOYOTA CROWN to function with a remote control. The car is controlled using a custom-made infrared remote control, and the remote control format is proprietary. The car is powered by a lithium polymer battery, and the motors are modified by removing the weights of the vibration motors. To program the microcontroller (ATtiny1616) used in the car, you need ATMEL STUDIO 7 or later and a device with UPDI support. The video covers the process of making tires, steering, rear wheels, steering servo, electronics parts, programming, and concludes with a test run.
