Ps3 servo controller

Projects Programming

Hi people

i am designing some code so that i can control my nitro rc car with a ps3 controller because the remote controller and reciver broke that came with it so im trying this
i am going to use a arduino uno with a usb host shield with a bluetooth dongle then two xbees two control the throttle servo and steering servo the xs in the code represent the numbers that i dont know yet.

 //Program to run Two servos on a nitro rc car this is just a basic setup for now but i am wanting to add support to run xbees becasue the bluetooth
  //does not have enough range to control the rc car. i dont know whether this is correct feel free to fix up my mistakes.






#include <PS3BT.h>
#include <Servo.h> 


Servo Steer;                                                                // Create servo object for steering
Servo Throttle;                                                             // Create servo object for throttle
USB Usb;
BTD Btd(&Usb);                                                              // You have to create the Bluetooth Dongle instance like so
PS3BT PS3(&Btd);                                                            // This will just create the instance
int val.1;                                                                  // Variable to read left analog stick of Ps3 controller
int val.2;                                                                  // Variable to read Right analog stick of Ps3 controller
boolean printTemperature;
boolean printAngle;

void setup() 
{
  Steer.attach(1);                                                          // Attaches the servo on pin 1 to the servo object
  Throttle.attach(2);                                                       // Attaches the servo on pin 2 to the servo object
}


void loop() 
{
  Usb.Task();

  if(PS3.PS3Connected || PS3.PS3NavigationConnected) 
{
  val.1 = PS3.getAnalogHat(LeftHatX);
  val.2 = PS3.getAnalogHat(RightHatY);
  val.1 = map(val.1, x, 0, 179);
  val.2 = map(val.2, x, 0, 179);
  Steer.write(val.1);  
  Throttle.write(val.2);
    
  if(Ps3.disconnect)  
  (
  Steer.write(pos = 90)                                                    // This is so if the car drops out of range it wont keep going and crash
  Throttle.write(pos = 0)                                                  // Same as above
}

Was there a question in there, somewhere?

3

Yeah there was will this code work??

4

will this code work??

Of course it will. Whether what it does matches what you want it do is a different question. To answer that, you need to upload it to the hardware and give it a try.

Hey I tried out your code and I get and error on Int Val.1; It says "expected initializer before numerical constant"
And if you can tell meh how to make the code for two servos but on the ps3 controller I would like to only use the left and right hatY .
