For the final project I would like to build a train that is remote controlled. I will be trying to make this train controlled very user friendly , even usable for my 3 year old son. I could be opting for a very simple joystick that triggers both position and speed.
A challenge will be to work in the transmission and design the parts for it: gears, shafts, etc.
It would be great if I can incorporate into the remote control and train a camera that would be transmitting the path the train is following.
I am thinking of using Solidworks to model the train and its transmission.
I would like to do a remote control that is minimalistic in the number of buttons it has. The simpler the better.
