A quick preview of the first subtitles so you know what the video covers.
This little car might look simple, but it's got real headlights and I can control it from my phone. I designed it in Fusion 360, kept it minimal, and honestly, I have no idea if it would even work, but it looked good enough to try. So, let's get printed. [Music] All right, 3D printing is done. Everything turned out really nice. I mixed different PLA colors for a cool look and went with TPU95A for the tires since they need to be flexible. Now, let's move on to the electronics. For the main board, I'm using the ESP 32C6 from Wave Share. A perfect choice for this project thanks to its compact size and powerful specs. Next, we need two N20 motors. To drive them, I have added a generic motor driver along with the battery charging module and a USB type-C connector for easy charging. With all the essential part gathered, it's time to start the connection and assembly. The wiring is pretty straightforward. I have included the complete wiring diagram in the description for reference. [Music] [Music] Okay, so I completely forgot about the battery to power this build. We'll need a small lipo battery. I found this one in my junk box. I'm also adding a slide switch so we can easily turn it on and off. For the headlights, I have decided to use an ARGB LED which I cut from an old LED strip. With the connections complete, let's move on to the assembly. To create the headlights, I took this piece of acrylic, cut it into the required shape, and insert it into the main enclosure. Perfect. It will glow when we turn on the lights. How can I get? [Music] All right, guys. Guys, the car is almost complete and it's looking pretty nice. The only thing is left installing the tires. It's pretty simple. We just need two 685Z bearings. Since this car has two free wheels and two motor driver wheels,
