My team's mentor is going to be on a business trip for a few days, and we'd like to test the IR code using the edubot as a robot, and the RC as the beacon, but we're not sure if you can easily transfer the code.

And if someone already asked this, um, yeah, I'm just stupid then .
Yes, it looks pretty easy to do.
The biggest difference is you'll have to change the beacon code to use two of the PWMs 13-16 rather than the PWMs 1 & 2 used on the EDU controller.
