Gather components as in list.2. Place motors on cardboard to make a car.3. Stick white leds on the front of the car and labelled it.4. Stick red leds on the back of the car and labelled it.5. Stick both front and back on the car.6. Take l293d motor driver shield and place it on Arduino uno.7. Take switch and 18650 battery and place it on the car.8. Take another cardboard piece and stick joystick module on it.9. Take USB mouse wire ( 1 in 4 wire ) and connect Vcc, GND, X axis and Y axis with female wire.10. Do connections from the circuit diagram and upload the code.Move the joystick and see the robot works..Your project is ready..Visit my YouTube channel once and see more interesting projects."Electronics is Fun"If you like my channel subscribe it please.link: <a href="https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCaXI2PcsTlH5g0et67kdD6g">https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCaXI2PcsTlH5g0et67kdD6g</a>
