Project Kong: Using the RC Controller

This video has our first modification to the Donkey Car; we restore the use of the original remote control. To do so we use a RedBear Duo to read the PWM signals comming from the RC receiver, forwarding them on as control codes over a serial connection made to the Raspberry Pi.

The both the code for the new SerialController part and the firmware for the Duo can be found on the project's GitHub page.
