To make our T.T.P. turn, you let the button on the remote go. To make it go forward, you hold the button in. In the back, there is a trailer-like object that has a motor attached to it. An axle is attached to the motor which sticks straight up. Attached to the axle are four cups with holes. Two cups contain seeds and two cups contain water. These cups spin around planting seeds and watering them at the same time while you can control our T.T.P.
