I've had a giant scale rc truck for the last 4 years with a peg pergero (like power wheels) body over a 50cc pocket quad bike chassis converted to rc, it was obnoxiously over powered and a real handful to control and is currently going through a conversion to electric. My steering is handled by a 60kg rc servo, those actuators are overkill for builds like this, if my servo copes with my much heavier truck with proper rubber tyres (it weighs 30kg) then it would find turning the wheels on a setup like that child's play! Now its getting everything thrown at it, flight controller, GPS, compass, forward facing lidar, rear facing sonar and HD fpv. Its got headlights and tail lights on a switch and brake and reverse lights that are automatically controlled with an transmitter mix.
What a fantastic build, great work man!!
By chance could you please send Me a complete material list of all the components to convert my c7 power wheels into a remote control system please
Hey been a while since this vid got posted - any issues with the actuator ?
Give us some feedback

Hey. What brand servo is that ? Curious to find out ! Maybe I can use it!
@@PeterSiekiera The servo is a JX PDI-HV2060MG
This is by far the most informative video on this conversion, I have a few questions tho, is there a way to pm you?
What did you spend on the build
Is the actuator speed too slow?
For the mario head servo maybe try reducing the rate on the servo/s or the servo it self might be faulty.
Nice projetc, i got a question, input voltage on ESC is same as output?
The motor will receive 12v as well?
Parts list? Price?
