I bought an RC car, a Raspberry Pi, and a solar panel. How do you go about attaching everything?
Duct tape, Hot glue? What do you pros do?
So far I'm thinking about cutting up some dowl rod wood into four equal length parts, then hot glue the bottom parts to the car, and the top parts to the bottom of the solar panel, then maybe the Rasberry pi zero ductaped to the underside of the solar panel.
It's really hard to figure out where you even buy stuff for this sort of crafting. I'd like to affix a platform to the top of the car basically so I can sit my solar panel above it in a stable way, and maybe protect the Pi from the rain.
What sort of stable stuff is there for a platform? I was thinking like plastic, but I would need something sturdy that won't just bend.
Pro stuff always looks so good, but this is going to look awful I'm sure.
Thanks for getting me pointed in the right direction.
