Id like to be able to manually control my RC Crawler using an EZ-B v4/2 + camera combo. Ideally I would like to control it with an xbox 360 controller using the triggers as proportional forward/reverse and one of the sticks for proportional left/right turning, both with auto centering (hands off the controller = stationary with the wheels straight). Controlled over a local network initially, but ultimately I would like to be able to mount my phone on the truck broadcasting a mobile hotspot and be able to control it from my desktop/laptop computer from anywhere. An RC car is fairly simple compared to a typical robot, after watching some videos, reading some tutorials, and messing with the software a bit it looks possible. Rather than ask how, I mainly wanted to ask if what I am describing is achievable with this ezrobot hardware/software.
I found a program that forwards USB over network called "USB Network Gate", was able to successfully forward my VRC adapter to the "computestick" running teamviewer remote desktop and use it in ARC! I had to have teamviewer remote desktop open and teamviewer vpn as well. So my goals have been achieved, now time to integrate everything on the crawler (I should have chosen the EZ-B IoTiny!). My only complaint is somewhat slow response but it works well enough for me, its actually not as slow as I imagined.
