“Hello fellow makers and tinkerers, I am back with another simple, easy-to-follow project based on the Raspberry Pi Pico. Using easy-to-find components, we will be making a 2-wheel drive the motor car controlled through a Bluetooth module on an android APP made by MIT app inventor.
The application is straightforward, which allows you to connect to the car through Bluetooth. Once connected, you can use the arrow buttons to control the movement and direction of the car. It comes with a slider to control the speed of the motor.
In this instructable, we will go through everything for you to recreate this project, make something similar, expand on it, and make it more awesome.
For the wood, it might be that you do not have access to a laser cutter, but online services provide laser cutting, or the enclosure can be 3D printed or made out of cardboard. The enclosure is limited to your creativity.
