Indeed 👍. In the video's notes he said he doesn't have the skill to build an h - bridge motor controller. Maybe he doesn't, IDK. But, he certainly does have enough skill for a project like this! 👏👏👏👏

Now this gentleman…. Is true engineering 👍 With that being said, it would have sharper steering if it steered from the rear. Easy for me to say though because I couldn’t have done what you did. Awesome 👏
@JK-zl7vv Жыл бұрын
Since the steering is just on and off, you should put a gas strut that always brings it back to center, this way your steering will be much more controllable

You're a genius! This is the only video I've seen of the hundreds that has an alternator and the awesome front end. How did you build the steering? Where do I get the parts? Thanks
@Bucklygr3 жыл бұрын
The steering is a wiper motor from a S-10, with momentary DPDT switch connected to servos. Just a basic RC controller setup with two servos. As for the supports for the wheels, just some bearing i had, no idea where to get them from. Thanks.

@@Bucklygr 💡 My dad turned 80 a few months ago. I came here looking into the idea of hiring someone to remodel his mower into a remote controlled one, using materials in his garage.... No promises nor commitment implied, just curious; How much generally would you want to be paid for such a job?

@WallStreet7493 жыл бұрын
No need to have servo motors and a drive system Just use rear servos to drive and steer kinda like a skid steer For the front end have swivel wheels and do away with the rack steering system KISS it. I like the alternator good idea.

so you just cut a hole in the housing of the engine, i was wondering how one would mount an alternator to the engine, ill have to find the old push mowers and see how those are, assuming i can get the other parts AND understand the technical details.

Very nice build but you need to buy an actual servo for the front steering wheels so they are always straight and once you turn they always return to center you can get a heavey duty servo for like 30 40 bucks expensive but worth it

It has a Neat-o factor to it but it doesn't appear to save one any time in mowing their yard, which is the biggest potential benefit. Since it is not automated or programmed, one might as well just do it the old fashioned way and get some exercise at least. Still, a fun experiment.

Brilliant! Only thing it needs is two springs returning the front wheels to center when not receiving a signal. (temporarily on)
