Title: RC Car headed for the trash. - Save it with an idea.
Post by: bitman on October 07, 2009, 11:27:05 AM

As the title describes, I have a RC mustang that I used to pull network cable in a ceiling. I'm all grown up now and don't want it anymore but can't help thinking there might be a use for it's mechanisms and x10 somehow.

Here is where the mother of invention needs a necessity.

Any Iders?

If car battery is 12V, maybe a mobile camera stand?...but some how I think the car will quickly out distance the X10 wireless camera range.

I also used a RC wire-puller. I even did a camera mounted to it.. it was fun and still works fine so I keep it handy for grandkids (that's my story and I am sticking to it).
