Hi guys I have built a Rc car for less than ₹1500
The electronics are

Servo - JR 519 ( second hand )( got it for free from a Aeromodeller )
Battery - wolf pack 1000mah 7.4 v( 550)
Motor - no idea( got it along with the car body )
Esc - hobbyking 20 amp brushed esc( 700)
Body - cheap Chinese Rc car bought from China bazaar(250)

So the total cost is ₹1500

This car is supercool , it can also drift .

nice work devang ...i think i'll make one too

rohan

Thanks . All the best

The servo mechanism was a very hard puzzle , try to take inspiration from mine

Brushed ESC from hk? can we find one from India? Any LHS stocks it??

And are these ESC reversible too?

  superb
Nice jugaad 
dont understand servo mechanism for stearing, want to see the video

No sir esc is not reversible , I have bought this one from thehobbyshop (THS) they have shifted to Lucknow now .

Sir I will post a video by tonight .

Thanks devang, i must say this post has inspired me to convert my 27mhz car to a 2.4Ghz car i will get that done this weekend and post pics

Thanks

Great !! I hope your car is even better than mine !

BTW. The run time on this is 2 hours . SERIOUSLY !

As it originally used 2x AA cells
And I'm using a 7.4 v 1100 mah 20c battery

I have Hummer H2 which uses 4 x AA so i think it would work fine with 2S lipo

It should work great !

Video -
Video should be available in 30 mins ( wasted all leftover 3G downloading IOS 8 yesterday across all my I devices )

Available now .

Nice work devang!!!

Thanks
How was my drifting ?

It was good...how fast did it go??

Not very sure , but it's atleast 60 kmph

Excellent! 

Thanks sir

Very good.
How can it be 60kmph with stock motor.

I said that I was not very sure , I guessed it by thinking of a real car at 60 and then this at full speed . I will try to make a video of it in full speed also .

EMAX 9 Gram metal gear servo would work??

Sir , it depends on the scale , I would recommend you a standard size plastic servo only as it has about 3.5 - 4.4 kg torque , hummer is a off roader , on the dirt the force should be a lot  that would try to pull the wheels on one side .

You can get a rough calculation if you can find out the maximum revs on the brushed motor. Since it's a simple gear reduction, you can calculate the theoretical top speed easily.
