🕹 ️RC Fan Boat

A remote controlled fan boat created by myself and Matthew Oslan for our CS335 final project (Fall 2020).

ℹ️ About

• The boat is controlled using an analog joystick connected to a Microbit to send data to the boat.
• The boat has a Microbit on board to receive the controller's radio signals.
• 3 fans attached to DC motors power the boat.
• A servo motor controls the rudder, diverting the air output from the center fan, allowing the boat to turn.
