Well, I was more thinking about just using the transmitter, receiver, and servos to control things other than airplanes or cars. But if I were to use it for a plane I would keep the computer on the ground and program the transmitter or a second transmitter/receiver. Or for a remote control truck or something (we have a nitro powered 4WD truck as well). I do have a large airplane with an 80" wingspan and a 44cc gas engine on it (27% of the full size real plane (CAP 232)) but the last time I flew it nearly exploded in midair due to aileron flutter from overspeed at around 100mph+, have it apart repairing it now.
I'll have to check out the battle bot site, thanks for the tip!
P.S. I just added system bell sound to the LED program. It's changes frequency and duration corresponding to the light sequences. I know, I'm a geek...

Interesting, Im new to programming in C++ and C but i did this once in powerbasic to make a program to copy files to another with an LPT port.
I have an electronic knoledge, im studying the workings of the MicroPorcessor and so on. And so far i know how a CPU works at the electronic level so what the hell.
TheQuirk:
You could easily control the airplane then from your computer. But it's kind of dumb, because you'll just be replicating your remote control. You could always, like I said, automate different functions using your computer.

hmmmmm, howabout sticking a video camera on it. i have seen it done on techtv by some 14year useing visual basic. then agian, why doesn't somebody out do the little shit with a real langague like c, c++ or even java.
TheQuirk:
I was thinking about that, but I'm guessing the camera would probably be too heavy or mess something up? Maybe one of those small, cheap netcams will do the trick?
