Can someone suggest a route, some ideas, on how to implement a cheap remote control? I'd like something that offers a couple of discreet signals to control simple "on/off" functionality.
Chipsets, modules; just starting this and need some basic ideas. I can do the research - just point me. (First time ever working with this kind of thing.)
Thank you very much.

Thanks. I'm searching thru there now. 10 feet. IR/Radio/other ... cheapest.

I got two of these in the impulse bin at some drugstore or something, for about two bucks apiece:
It's got forward/reverse, and right/left - that's two channels with three states each. (off, 1, 2); I don't know if that's really 4 channels or if the two have 3 states each.
I could send you one to hack, for a few bucks to cover "shipping and handling". ;-)
Good Luck! Rich
Hack an old R/C toy car. You get 4 functions - forward, back, let, right. Have fun!
