motor control
i need a fairly cheap way or controlling 2 car-window motors. with 2 motors, im going to use skid-steer. if i cant find it cheap, im going to use 1 motor and make a steering system. im not sure if i want it remote controlled or autonomous yet. but i plan on mounting my paintball gun on top, or maybe a robotic lawn mower if the motors have enough power. maybe a webcam so it can be controlled from a computer. if i control it from a computer, i can make it auto and remote controlled. ive done that before. but i need another BOE and then the wireless modules. so in the end, this ends up getting expensive, between the extra BOE, the motor controller, and stuff. anybody have any good ideas on how to help me get this stuff cheaper?

Maybe you will need a GPS module to make sure the robot doesn't invade other's yards. Or check out this thread:

Maybe you can't use a Parallax HB motor controller:
