In part 1 of this episode we give a overview of how we turned an Oldsmobile Detla 88' into a remote control car in just a few weeks. We built our control systems using a few motors, potentiometers, a Compact RIO embedded controller, and LabVIEW. We then set up wi-fi communication so we can drive the car from an iPhone as well as from a modified Power Wheels truck.
