This may be a long shot, but I was wondering if this would work:
I wanted to create a wireless bicycle brake, with a button on the handlebar to switch them on.
I read that the braking force of bicycle brakes are around 5n. If I used the internals of an RC car and replaced the motor with a 12v 5newton pull solenoid (to connect the brake cable to) and then connected a 12v battery, would that work? Or would the 12v running through the RC car's receiver just break it's components?
Someone please tell me if this would work or if not, another way it could be done.
