RC Plow

This is an RC Plow I made to fit my RC car. All of the parts from it were made from junk I had lying around. Now I can clear the driveway from the comfort of my home!

The plow is made from sheet metal steel. I bent the steel from a piece of PVC pipe to get the right curvature. I then mounted a hinge to the back of the plow and to a piece of aluminum that I mounted to some empty screw holes on the frame of the RC car. I then used an old servo and glued it to the aluminum to provide the power to lift and drop the plow. The servo was connected to a broken and old RC helicopter receiver and electronic speed controller. I then had two different controllers for the RC car and the plow. Next time, I will try to put both the plow and the RC Car remote controllers in one, by adding a switch to the RC Car's controller.
