NXT brick-to-brick Bluetooth remote

[Sariel]

Something I always wanted to try: a remote that allows you to control motors connected to one NXT brick with another NXT brick using Bluetooth link. It allows proportional steering and speed-control for the propulsion motor, which makes it generally superior to Power Functions remotes.

Note that it uses ROBOTC 3.05 and a simple Bluetooth messaging between two NXT bricks.

I hope it comes handy for those of you who like accurate proportional control which is otherwise practically impossible with LEGO.

See you you have that steering thing set up is that not bad for the motor?

[Sariel]

I guess it's very bad if your motor is lazy. It makes it work.

Ah yes lazy motors,i get have that problem too, i just take them to the gym, 5 munutes on the tread mill does the trick,I still have not worked why i get so funny looks from passers by.
