To add a Game Controller to the car, I used an EasySMX PS3 controller found on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KV7B2CG). I also installed AntiMicroX on the Raspberry Pi to map the keyboard keys to the various controls and buttons. For instance I set all of the arm functions to the two joysticks (I, J, K and L to the left and U, O, P and ; to the right joystick). I set the steering (A and D) on the gamepad. And finally I set forward and reverse thrust to the triggers (for W and S). Eventually I found that the joystick controlled the steering much better, so I swapped the left joystick functions for the gamepad functions.
Initially, I had this all working on of my laptop with the game controller's USB receiver plugged into it. However I found that the controller stopped controlling the car after it got about 30 feet from my laptop. I then proceeded to add AntiMicroX to the Raspberry Pi and plugged the controller directly into the Pi itself. I found that as long as the car was within 30 feet of me, the controller would continue to control the car. I also added a 6" USB extension cord (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CJG2ZYM) and cable tied it to the back of the car, facing up to turn it into a makeshift antenna and also if the car moves in reverse, it won't bump and damage the USB receiver.
To do all of this, I found that I had to learn how to make the Raspberry Pi run headless. What I did was put two shell scripts into the AutoStart folder (under /home/pi/.config/autostart. NOTE: If the autostart folder doesn't exist, you will need to create that folder) this caused AntiMicroX and also Chromium to automatically run upon boot. Chromium was needed in order to run the Adeept Bot Controller webpage directly on the Pi. Being that these two files were sorted in the folder alphabetically, it ran AntiMicroX first and then Chromium. This was important because the webpage needs to be in the foreground in order for the controller to work.
I then needed a way to properly stop these programs remotely. If you just switch off the power or perform a shutdown, it can corrupt Chromium. I found that if you just shut it off, Chromium kept asking in a pop up window if I wanted to restore the previously viewed webpage and waited for a response. Whether I clicked restore or cancel it just kept popping up and I couldn't get rid of it. I googled the solution for this to no avail. The only extreme way I found to get around this, was to restore the OS and start over from scratch. Now what I do is use MobaXTerm to remote in from my laptop and pkill both AntiMicroX and Chromium first before running shutdown. That seemed to do the trick. No more pop ups!! There may be a better way to do this, but I also am new to Linux. :)

Instructions are a joke but after trial and error can get it sorted
Code is nice and fun to play with worth about $50 so be aware that it is very cheap materials
