We build a remote control system for our pitbike so we can crash it.

Donut = We like cars, and we like making videos about cars. Hopefully our videos make you like cars too.

48 thoughts on “Making My Walmart Motorcycle Remote-Controlled

  1. You guys need a better RC specialist 😂😂 no less than 4 major screw ups in the design and I could have solved the balance issue in less than a day. Next time I'll do it for half what that other dude did it for. No joke! Put me on lol!

  2. This may be an odd question but where do I park things like this when I’m out? I’m curious about it might get an E bike or something I’m just wondering if I use a whole parking spot or what

  3. Uh…. I already knew what happens when a motorcycle hits a car. I watched a guy driving a Kawasaki Ninja plow into the side of a car doing 120 mph back in 2012. The car was totalled. i won't talk of the motorcyclist.

  4. Before I even watch what you guys do with the throttle I'm just going to throw this out there, as an R/C guy. What you do with the throttle is you take a micro servo and mount it so that the arm movement can push/pull the carb slide. Connect the two with a pushrod made of a strong metal. It shouldn't take too much force to move the slide, so a standard piece of R/C pushrod should do the trick. As far as balancing the bike, just do what the little R/C bikes and the big helicopters use – a gyro. A good sized gyroscope will help keep the bike stable. Now to see how you guys handle this. (This ought to be good.)

    Edit: So you guys did ok with the throttle setup. You could have simplified it by bypassing the cable and connecting the servo to the throttle directly, like an R/C car/truck. The steering could have been simplified, too, using a large-scale, high-torque servo with a custom arm setup attached directly to the struts at the top, below the handlebars. You would have better steering control in both directions. On top of that you'd have a setup which would have a better shot and surviving the car impact. Then you could use the bike to try your NOS/turbo setup without a rider. How weird would THAT look going down the road?

  5. Hate to be that guy, but cant you just attach the cables closer to the fulcrum of the steering column to make it turn more sharp. Then again I doubt that tiny motor has enough strength to turn it from there. I thought it would have a super hard time as is.

  6. Justin should use safety glasses when he uses power tools (5:55). It makes me cringe every time. In my shop you a have 1 warning, next time you're out. I will never be the guy who lets safety go sloppy and cost someone else eye, or maybe life

  7. Should have put the servo right down on the carb and just eliminated the cable completely and for the steering instead of those tiny servos and cables for the steering just get a bigger servo/motor and put it right on the steering arm with a gear drive, so much easier

  8. Too much weight over the back wheel with the dummy negatively impacts front wheel steering control. Also for balance, dummy should be rigid and mounted to a rigid structure. – even small uncontrolled shifts in weight during operation will add steering input that you can’t compensate for through a remote because there’s no feedback to the operator other than visual, which is both NOT ENOUGH information & TOO LATE. Operator response in these conditions will likely only worsen the situation. 

    WAY MORE than handlebar control, a mechanism for distributing weight around the center mass is more effective for precision control of maintaining straight line direction and other small directional inputs.

    This deficiency is the only reason “training wheels” are really needed. And that’s why learning to ride a bike is hard. Our brains have to learn that our weight distribution is integral to the operation and how to use that. Training wheels are only for safety during that learning process of in-line drive wheels, and are not beneficial beyond that. Their required presence is just a form of a sh1t13r car.

    Love you guys. Xoxo

  9. I feel like the inclusion of a regular ol' sissy bar instead of a bosozoku sandan was a bit of a missed opportunity. Maybe that can be an idea for a future video.

    "The Walmart/Coleman bosozoku motorcycle."

    Bolt on a fatty wakaishi sandan, some devil tubes and a hata bo or two eight and then… Well, who the fuck cares, really? Whatever you do with it afterwards would just be a bonus.

  10. I knew you guys bit off way more than you could chew when i never heard the term "counter steering" mentioned…. I'm guessing none of you guys ride an actual street legal bike. Turning the bars left makes the bike lean to the right which makes the bike turn right. It's a natural thing you do on a bike without thinking about it but trying to use a remote when you are correcting a veer to the right by turning left you are just making it worse.

    P.S I'm making this comment half way through watching the video :p

    Edit: finished the video.. calling your "remote controlled motorcycle" a "success" when it has four wheels is stretching a little .

  11. Jeremiah was a bullfrog! dun dun dun. He was a good friend of mine! dun dun dun. I never understood a single word he said,

    But I helped him a-drink his wine

    And he always had some mighty fine wine.

  12. Are those 32k servos?Should have gotten some from the Raminator rc truck(120kg) Also buy a Dumborc remote and receiver,it has 300+ yards for range and its 45$ for both. Also what did you use to power the receiver?
