Hacking the RF Module

In order to make the RC car autonomous, we had to get rid of the remote control that the car is equipped with. Our car - Maverick Quantum MT does not have its PWM sequence open-sourced. So, we had to get our hands dirty in detecting the PWM signals sent by the RC receiver to the ESC module. Using an oscilloscope, we could identify the duty cycle and frequency corresponding to the servo and motor actions.

TODO: Insert picture of the oscilloscope with signals. Add the duty cycles for various speeds and degrees of servo movement.

Control Unit Direction Frequency (Hz) Duty Cycle (%)
Servo Motor Right Max 61.02 5.9
Left Max 61.02 12.62
Motor Forward Max Speed 61.02 12.65
Idling (Zero) Speed 61.02 9.27
Reverse Max Speed 61.02 5.66

The duty cycle for crawling the car at the slowest speed = 9.47%.
