Hi
I want to control a motor by a remote control but the problem is if the remote battery does not work by any reason there might be a disaster because the motor is for a lifter.
I know I can use the flip flop mode but I'm looking forward for another solution.
English isn't my native language so sorry in advanced.

A ratchet type mechanism or a brake that is normally on.
With no signal from the remote the brake is on and the load can't descend.
Is this a wireless remote or could you have a wired remote like a movable crane, and not have to be concerned about a battery?
Maybe some more detail of what you are actually trying to do would be helpful.

It's a wireless remote. Is there any electrical solution?

Possibly by use of a rechargeable battery backup but we can't design a system for you here. If there is a chance of a disaster as you have indicated, you need to consult an experienced mechanical engineer who can look at the specifics of your operation.
