I'm pretty proud of what I've done
I haven't seen anybody who done exactly the same thing. As far as fully, we won't control
This is my 2006 Corvette C6 and it's a full-scale remote control car and I like it a lot
This is 34-year-old computer technician Bjorn Harms. He's built a full-sized remote control corvette that wouldn't look out a place in the latest Bond film
My first idea of building a full remote control car was by watching Back to the Future when I was a little kid And I always had this idea of man when I older and I get my first car then I want to try to make my own full remote control car
And that's what I did. The Corvette is road legal and even my daily driver
Two years ago, I bought a Corvette, C6, and I came up with this idea to make it full-scale remote control
So I had to make a universal... to make a universal motor controller so I could control different types of motors
that I've attached to the controls of the car. I control the car with my four-channel transmitter
It controls the braking, the gear changing, the throttle and the searing
Building the universal motor controller took me around one year, then it took me around three months
to make a prototype system, and it took me another three months to make a system
that was also safe enough to use. We have Bof Mm I also made a fail system So that means if the car gets out of range of my transmitter the brakes starts braking automatically automatically
The engine is a V86 liter. It has around 404 horsepower and the top speed is close to 300 kilometers an hour
Technically it could go that fast remotely, but highly unwisely. The first time I drove the car I felt pretty scary because I was a little bit nervous on would it actually work properly So but after testing it it worked better than I thought
Most people are very excited and they actually love the project, but there are also a lot of people that think it's crazy and, of course, a little bit dangerous
The entire RC process cost around 3,500 euros. 500 euros, give or take
All the Corvette values right now is around 30,000 euros, even with the remote control system
I would consider selling it, but mainly so I can start another project again
I'm pretty sure there's no other cavet in the world that controls like this one
I am very proud of what I have done
