Hey everyone,
I'm totally new to PW and i was able to find a lambo on craigslist. after taking it home, I found out that it was actually a barbie lambo which has a super6. I've been reading some threads on here to get some ideas.
i read about this "turbo button" and i thought it would be cool to run that on a toggle switch. I went to the electronic store and presented the 6v + 6v or the 12v with some sort of governor.
they recommended the 12v with a pair of resistors... it was a pretty simple circuit to put together (i only have 8th grade electronics to back me up) but i was able to connect everything. My toggle for 12v full works fine but when i try to switch down to 6v (through resistors) I get no power to engines.. my circuit tester reads that connections are fine. (what size resistor do i need to effectively lower the 12v down to approx 6v while still getting power to the wheels?)
also, in my final test i blew 30 amp fuse... (luckily i have backup)
i see the other thread with lower power reverse and that looks really complicated to me hahah...
