This is my first attempt to make a custom remote controller, and also my first customized Arduino. After seeing this post made by ObbBot I wanted to try to make one myself.
I figured that if I purchase one remote controller it would be cheaper than buying two of these and paying shipment to Portugal.
So, ripping the guts from a game remote controller I get two joysticks, a couple of buttons, two nice motors and one small lcd.
Each joystick have one button inside wich is cool
Now I have more control over my bots, specially the ones with two motors… will post videos later.
Yes I´m using Ladyada´s Yes I´m using Ladyada´s adapter, its very good and simple to use and already saved me from burning the xbee module because I connected the power and ground backwards…
