    Hi Mridul,

    Ofcourse possible. You can do make such a thing without any electronic components, but with some clever connections only. You can use switching components also. You can even use a microcontroller. If you wish you can try for a wireless connection with the car also. Which way you would like to do it?

    I would like to make it without a microcontroller because it would be a nice thing and I want it not to be wireless

    Hi,

    That was the circuit which I found when I opened the control pad of my first controllable toy car.

    M1 and M2 are DC motors, L1 and L2 are livers for forward/backward and left/right movement respectievely.

    The Livers are connected to the switches in such a way that, in the case of L2, when the lever is pulled leftwrads, the left most switch make contact with the lower panel and the rightmost switch made contact with the upper panel. It happens in the reverse oredr when the L2 is pulled rightwards. Similar in the case of L1
