Yes, this is perfectly legal.

You can also use it during human-controlled section too.

What about using the laptop with the "Wireless Programming Kit" from Innovation First? Is it legal to use that during the autonomous mode?
No, because the radios operate at 900Mhz. They would interfier with the OI radios.

Finally, is it legal to have a dashboard program that sends values back to the RC?
In autonomous mode you cannot send data to the robot controller.

This would be illegal in regular mode because it is illegal to hook a computer into the input(s) of the operator interface.
