Wifi RC Car ESP8266

Control your Wifi RC car with your smartphone.

✴ This application allows you to control a RC wifi car using your smartphone.

✴ To create my Wifi car, I used the NodeMCU V3 microcontroller which includes an ESP8266 Wifi module. The car can be controlled either in AP mode (Access Point) or in STA mode (Station).

✴ The steps to control your car are:

• connect your smartphone to the same wifi network as your wifi car.

• Make sure that the application parameters are correct (IP, PORT, etc..).

• Have fun!

✴ 3 different ways to control your car:

• buttons.

• accelerometer.

• voice.

✴ List of default commands sent to your car server to control the motors are :

• http://IP:PORT/move?dir=F (Forward)

• http://IP:PORT/move?dir=B (Backward)

• http://IP:PORT/move?dir=R (Turn Right)

• http://IP:PORT/move?dir=L (Turn Left)

• http://IP:PORT/move?dir=S (Stop)

• http://IP:PORT/action?type=(1-8) (Action 1 to 8)
