This is a summer project I've wanted to do for awhile, but have never got around to doing it - using a mini EDU controller and the r/c car controller to try and drive the robot. Sadly, I don't have the programming background to set the EDU up to do it. It would be really cool to be able to eliminate the full sized RC and OI for doing demonstrations and stuff where the full control system isn't needed.

If you need to just use the drive base all you need is a vex kit with the default code on it. just hook it up with a Y-cable or so that you control one side with 1 PWM channel. I have hook the VEX stuff up to victors and it works perfectly, there is no reason why it wouldn't. If you need more help PM me.
