TAMIYA King Hauler with DIY Sound & Light Controller: First Test Drive. It's Awesome!

In this video: The awesome Tamiya King Hauler is on its first outdoor test drive, together with the Tamiya flatbed semi trailer! It’s equipped with my Arduino ESP32 sound & light controller, as well as with my Arduino based 2.4GHz remote.

Light & sound controller features & improvements, compared with old version for ATmega328P:
- better sound quality, sampling rate up to 22’050Hz, instead of 16’000
- Multiple sounds can play simultaneously
- real DAC outputs, no R/C filter circuit required
- easier sound file conversion thanks to bitlunis conversion tool (link above)
- the variable speed engine sound can play at the same time as an additional sound with fixed speed (a horn or a siren for example)
- more sounds in better quality available
- special sounds included like: „Martinshorn“ fire truck horn, US Police siren, Swiss post bus horn, train horn, car horn, MAN TGA truck horn
- Engine sounds for: Land Rover Defender V8, ford Mustang, Chevy Nova, Dodge Challenger, MG B GT V8, LaFerrari, V8 Trophy Truck, Scania V8, Ural V8, Kenworth, Detroit Diesel etc.
- Air brake sounds
- Output for vibrating motor, which simulates engine vibrations
- Vehicle inertia simulation, if crawler type ESC is connected to pin 33
- Many light functions like headlight, tale light, brake light, indicators, blue light, foglight, sidelights
- 4 RC servo signal inputs
- 13 light outputs
- PPM communication
- One wire communication with my „Micro RC“ remote system: github.com/TheDIYGuy999/Micro...

wow the build came out awesome,great video

[@TheDIYGuy999]

Thank you. Yes, it's awesome.

[@WombiiActual]

I love how it increases engine sound before the truck starts moving. It really shows the advantage of letting it control the esc.

[@TheDIYGuy999]

Yes, that's exactly why I did it. And it works without any issues. All the signals to the controller are running via serial communication btw.

[@jasonengebos1012]

Awsome build! I am almost complete with your controller for my Grand Hauler. I also added a wireless link for the trailer lights using a pair of Nano's and a pair of NRFL01's. Thank you for the work you put into this project.

[@TheDIYGuy999]

Thanks and you're welcome. Have a look at the newest update BTW.

​@@TheDIYGuy999 hey bro, my esc32 don't have CMD, SD3, SD2, SD1, SD0 pins. Is this necessary for the system ?

[@TheDIYGuy999]

​@@erhanyldz5342 No, they are not required and reserved for system use anyway. Just use the pins according to the #define statements in the sketch and it will work just fine. good luck.
