Ive made a small toy cars that i run with a small remote controle (not wireless). Basicly the simple concept used is give current to motor, it will rotate, attach wheels to its axis and it will move. The motor used is a small one that u usually find in a music system Its rated 12 Volts. But giving it supply of 7-9 volts using dry cells run it very well. Now I want to connect it to my computer. I want to controle its movements through a seperate software\application that i would develope in VB6. I think dat is possible by utilizing the output of Audio Port or USB. Please guide me on how to do it.

mohit khanna It is not hard to do that but how you connect your car to PC? USB lead or Radio control which could be like INFRA RED station. There are many possibility but you have to find out which one is best. If you use infra then you will need good transmitter and that cost money. Coding in VB is not that hard if you know how. Remember TURTLE.
