Introduction

R/C cars are radio control cars that originated from radio control planes. Nicolas Tesla was the inventor of radio control toys. Allesandro Volta was the creator of the battery, Heinrich Hertz discovered how to transmit signals with electronic waves, Nikolas Tesla built the first R/C vehicle and Leonardo Torres Telekino figured out how to make the first radio- or remote-controlled device. Each of these inventors made the R/C car possible with the first one being created in 1966 by Lamborghini and Ferrari. These models started off big and made their way down to the consumer friendly R/C cars known today.

Use of Components

All the components of the Car and Remote-Control work together to function correctly. The car functions begin with the front battery as it connects to the front axles which connect to the control arms then connect to the front rims and tires in order to move the front tires left and right for steering. A front and bottom cover are placed on the front battery in order to protect it from outside items that may cause damage. The rear of the car works a little differently as it starts with a battery but this battery has a gear attached so when power fuels the battery the gear will turn. This gear is connected to the rear axle which has a longer gear which spins the rear rims and tires to which it is attached. The rear also has covers to protect it from outside items which can cause it harm. Both battery systems are wired to the motherboard which sends signals to these batteries for their different functions. The motherboard gets power from batteries that should be placed in the battery tray. The battery tray protects the motherboard from underneath and there is also a top cover to the motherboard. The battery tray also has a cover so that the batteries placed don’t come out as well as get damaged. On top of all of these pieces goes the car cover which is just a shell of the car. Each cover is attached with Phillip head screws.

The remote-control functions with different parts. The motherboard connects to the joysticks and the acceleration button as it receives the signal when either the joysticks are moved or the acceleration button is pressed. The pressure pad controls the acceleration that is done as with more pressure the higher the acceleration and lower pressure the lower the acceleration. The remote has a front and back cover which also have stickers that are placed on them. These covers are attached with Phillip head screws. The back cover contains a battery train which gives power to the motherboard. The motherboard of the remote-control sends radio signals to the motherboard in the car.

Conclusion

This battery powered R/C car has the potential of a two-speed turbo. A two-speed turbo signifies that the car can go at a low speed or at a fast speed. Depending on the pressure put on the acceleration is what will control the speed of the car. It also has the potential of 2.4 Ghz of radio power, meaning that the car can be controlled up to 200 feet. Full Function is also a feature. Full function is the capability of turning left and right and being able to go forward and in reverse. R/C cars have made it a long way from the first few R/C vehicles of the past.

Subject: Technical Description

 

This is being written to inform you about the technical description of a Forza Motorsport Radio Control(R/C) Corvette Stingray, breaking down its parts and subparts and how they work together.

• The main struggle when writing this technical description was figuring out how I wanted to organize the parts and subparts within my writing so that it could flow.
• I moved around the parts and subparts around six times until I found a flow in the parts and subparts to my liking.
• There was a lot of editing that took place in the process because every time I reread the paper there would be one or two grammar problems that I didn’t catch on the first times.

The Forza Motorsport Radio Control Corvette Stingray is capable of 2.4 Ghz of power and has a range of 200 feet. The R/C Corvette Stingray can drive forward, drive in reverse, turn left and right.
