The Transmitter Kit from Rocket Brand Studios is a perfect way to add RC control to your robot or electronics project via a X-bee unit. We start with a FetaDuino, the Arduino-based LCD backpack system, add a nice Playstation-style joystick and then throw in some pots and buttons for good measure.
Features:
- 16x2 LCD
- FetaDuino -- An Arduino-based backpack with volt regs, EEPROM, room for an X-bee and more
- PlayStation-style joystick
- 2 Potentiometers
- 2 Momentary Push-buttons
- Cut-outs for IR LED's
- Laser-cut acrylic caseAll assembly hardware
- Plenty of room for all your extra doo-dads (5v and 3.3v available from the FetaDuino)
- Available for lefties and righties

Now, don't let the X-bee scare you. Most of the Series-one's work right out of the box with no configuration. If I still don't have you convinced, there is plenty of room inside the case for just about any flavor of transmitting unit --from those little $5 guys up to those fancy 2.4g units. You can even just add some IR LED's in the provided holes for IR control via "Sony protocol" or via serial data. Heck, why not use it as your TV remote while you're at it?
Comes in any color (or colour) you want and even comes in a left-handed version
