Wheelchair motor

Hello..!!!!
I am Electronic Hobbyist...
I'm working on Electric Wheel Chair.....
I'm confused about Motor(Which DC/AC motor should i choose) and as i want to implement it with cost efficiently is there any idea about low cost Joy stick..

Thank YOU !!!!!

i can help with the joy stick but not the moters take a look at this one:

I 've a question that is this joystick is compatible to PIC18FXXXX......????
CUZ i want to use PIC..!!!!

Is this possible....!!!!Any idea...

the only thing i can tell you is that the on i showed you has 5 pins (VCC, GND, X, Y and sw) vcc goes to positive and gnd goes to negative x,and y are anolog outputs for the x and y axis and sw is a digital out for the push button the two pis on the board labled r5 is for a resistor (pull down) but they dont come with it so you need to add one if your going to us it (it will ruin a microcontroller if not put there)

 

[conductor3]

so all you need is a microcontroller with positve and negative and 2 anolog inputs toread a variable between positive and negetive (there is 2 potentiometers on it onefor each axis)

Thank you.....

heres a quick diagram

 

[conductor3]

and the moter will be dc other wise you wont be able to go backwards

 

[conductor3]

if your pic has 2 analog inputs it will work
