Take Your Battles to the Next Level: Building Remote-Controlled Tank Controllers

When it comes to playing classic games like 'Battle Tanks' or similar infrared combat simulations, having a reliable and efficient controller can make all the difference in your gameplay experience. In this article, we'll show you how to build your own remote-controlled tank controllers using simple materials and basic electronics.

Step 1: Prepare Your Materials

To get started, gather the necessary components for building your tank controllers. You will need two-way switches, an old small plastic box, a drill or hole punch, and some wire. If you're new to DIY projects, don't worry - we'll walk you through each step.

Step 2: Assemble Your Controller

Using the video as reference, connect the terminals of your two-way switches according to their instructions. This will ensure that your controllers function properly when connected to your tanks' infrared turrets.

Step 3: Build Your Tank Controllers

Take an old small plastic box and drill or punch a series of holes through it. These holes will allow you to attach buttons, joysticks, or other controls to create the perfect tank controller setup for each player.

With these simple steps, you can build your own remote-controlled tank controllers that will take your gameplay experience to new heights. No longer limited by cumbersome wired connections, your tanks are now free to roam and battle with ease - all thanks to the power of infrared technology and a little bit of DIY ingenuity.
