So, i want to buy a power drill that has somewhere between a 200-500w motor and a 24v battery, can i use it with a Arduino without it instantly combusting? I'm on a budget that's why i want to not spend much money since 10$ its worth about 8 times more where I'm from. i want to use such a powerful motor and battery since the car will be 8x8 and quite big.
Edit: its ok i figured it out
Is someone here preventing you from doing that? What is your plan, why do you expect it to combust?
It's impossible to guess how a system like that would behave without knowing the exact components and electronic design.
1, i dont have neither the drill nor the Arduino, i dont want to spend my money for it to just not work.
2. Arduinos are max 12v generally and i read other people post saying you'll fry your board using anything more than 12v, and so i want to search for a solution to make it work. i also dont know if the board is able to handle 200-500w without it catching on fire or frying anything on it. im very new to Arduino s and idk much about them and how they interact with other electronics
This is what im building
Isn't that a lot more expensive than the $200 you mentioned? Where are you going to get the money?
I see you edited the first post. If you have solved this question, please mark it as "solved".
going to build a replica about 40-50cm in length, most of the parts i need i can 3d print but the 200$ i mentioned i was talking about the electronics
You need a MOSFET motor driver circuit.
so,to build an rc car , i need an arduino uno R3, a mosfet and a Bluetooth module, not counting the motors and servos?
Not just one MOSFET, unless you want the motor to only run in one direction.
So you saying if i want full control of 2 motors i need 2 mosfets? Why? iv seen many people only use one for their project rc cars
Something doesn't make sense, how do you even wire them up?
Prolly i misunderstood what you said, do i need both an Arduino and 2 shield motor drive modules?
Ik what im asking are very basic questions but please have patience i just started researching these things 2 days ago:)
No, I'm saying you need 8 MOSFETS for 2 motors. Two MOSFET bridge circuits. I'm keeping this answer brief because I want you to continue your research, when you find out why, you will also find out all the other things to make it work. Search using terms like "Arduino motor control".
I have patience but I think threads here are limited to a few months duration, after that they get locked. If you post a question on this thread in a month, I will still see it. So do your research and come back with specific questions about your detailed proposal.
