This should do the trick.

var speed : float = 1.0;
var rotateSpeed : float = 3.0;

    function Update() {
    var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
    transform.Rotate(0, Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal") * rotateSpeed, 0);
    if (controller.isGrounded) {
    // We are grounded, so recalculate
    // move direction directly from axes
    moveDirection = Vector3(0, 0,
    Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
    moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection);
    moveDirection *= speed;

...Unity comes with multiple scripts... Look for the controllers that come with it...

In the search in the editor, type controller, their's an FPS and a 3rd person one... and they have a FPS Walker script too that's more simple than the motor...
