Hi, I am making a h- bridge for my RC car, but it seems to not be working. The transistor I am using is a p30N06LE n-MOS. In the picture, the yellow and orange represent the path that electricity is meant to go through depending on whether pin 7 or 8 is high.
Does that fritzing bread board layout compare with the first schematic here? :

Think about....
Arduino is no power supply.
As you have discovered, that design does not work.
You will have much more fun if you buy a modern, efficient, H-bridge motor driver like this very nice one.
You will need to use an adequate motor power supply as well.
Your frizzy picture is hard to follow but with that configuration you need 4 gate drives as you cannot turn the high side on and the low side off on the same side or vica versa without shoot through. With this configuration I expect it will not work and you will probably destroy your protoboard in time. Also you need the high side to be P-MOS MOSFETS as you will not be able to appropriately enhance the high side drivers. You can get a good H bridge, BTS78960, for next to nothing. Check this link: BTS7960 - Arduino Reference I have purchased several from my favoriate china supplier for under $5.00 US. There are many designs available on line using MOSFETs but they are normally drawn as a schematic, thot a fuzzy sketch.
