Small Soldiers anyone?

Seriously, you should go about the robot comms as a wireless network, if you can interfere with the data from OI to RC and impersonate it, with a stronger signal, you can very easily override another controller....in theory. As far as reprogramming it goes doesn't that button connect to a digital input? I bet you could find some way to trigger it if you dig deep enough in the code.

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
