I’ve had a look at the schematic and it seems simple enough and as an electronics engineer I don’t see any reason why the forward/back input to the micro (in transmitter) cannot be PWM’d to give proportional speed.

The left right could also be PWM’d but as its effectively just a couple of solenoids in the car (for steering) then proportional control is likely to be less effective than on the motor.

Anyway PWM at the controller is a good idea and in principal it should work.
Now to put it into practice…

If I get something working I’ll post the info up on my web site…
