Description

A project to create a kit for basic remote control and auto steering and movement.

Details

The idea is to make a simple kit to convert tractors and other vehicles to remote driving so they can be used in hazardous environments.

Basically install a kit in and hook it up to battery/generator and set waypoints to drive and put the vehicle in drive/1st gear+speed setting. One motor will steer and the other motor will do brake/clutch control.

For example using the kit to make a mine clearing tractor in Ukraine with any normal vehicle.

Have had some stuff going on but now I've gotten more time on my hands and have gotten in some parts to start initial tinkering.

Will update later on any progress and also some design ideas I've had.
First component consideration & acquisition

Have been scourging the internet for what components to have generally and then finding parts to specifically buy as well.
Will do a updated parts list soon.
