Re: Please Help: Programming the Robovation Kit

thank you to all of you, i will try all of your suggestions and see which one works best. I would look for that documentation but i think we might have lost it last year but i'll check. Abyways this might help us with autonomous mode this year because last year we got it to follow the line (which was really hard and pretty good i think for a rookie team) and it didn't quite work. And about my second question i was wondering if there were any what kind of r/c controller i could use on the little box to make it remote controled . Like would i have to customly wire like an r/c car control unit into it or use like the big controller from the big kit?
