The last year I have been working on creating a remote control system to control a float that is used in a local parade. This will be my first post on this site and I hope you will like it. I enjoyed looking at this site for many ideas and a lot of information so I hope I can contribute a bit myself to return the favor.
The system uses a parallax propeller board and two xbee modules.
