A small, handheld controller is awesome for a demo bot (and far cheaper/more reliable than a smartphone running a DS emulator).

I would share our code, but it's only compatible with the EDU-RC and is specialized for our exact setup. I would recommend getting the default code and manual for the controller you have here: http://www.ifirobotics.com/first-legacy.shtml.

PS: IIRC, the IFI controllers never supported C++ (just C [and PBASIC for pre-2004])
Oh! those are from the old control system! Im a 2011 rookie, that was before my time. I get it now.
