Repurposing a retired robot

[Joeclohessy]

Hello all its been a long time since I've been to Chief Delphi(so long I had to create a new account)

I am trying to repurpose a retired machine and wondering if I can get some input here.

Tried doing a search but fdidnt find what I was looking for.

I'm searching for a way to use a hobby grade 8ch transmiter / receiver to control the machine. Does anyone know offhand if this should be capable? Obviously if I have more than 8 ch to control I can't with what I have to work with.

The more feedback the better.. Thanks all in advance.
