Fairly straightforward, few things to watch to make sure nothing
falls apart/in, might have to machine the housing a little, couple of
options. Electronic side is a cinch, mechanical side always
seems to be the ambiguous one <sigh> Have a few CPUs now in stock
to cover the timing, have an extrusion housing to take a DB9 for
RS232 - at this stage I just want some figures and resolution...
I prob wont get time to work on it for a month or so, Iv'e
been working in the lab for roughly 16hrs a day where his PC is <sigh>

Hey, just realised you are into RC, couple of queries,

a.	My youngest wants one of these tank track robots but its
	cable remote. We can work together to add a receiver and
	a cheap cpu to interpret the PWM fromt he 2 channels. But
	I want to a recevier which is same freq as the hand held txmtr
	he's using for his cheapy RC car - any suggestions on a 2 chan
	off the shelf receiver ?

b.	Bought to identical RC cars for both my kids xmas 2001 and
	had to mod one to run on 24Mhz instead of 27 (yes I know about
	allocations etc) but both have limited range - only about
	20m with fully charged batteries, any suggestions on moding
	the txmtr/recvr to get 50m range ?
