This is sort of a survailence tank i've been building the past couple of days. At its heart is of cours the EZ-B connected wirelessly via an xbee xsc 900 which gives awsome range even through several walls. The Android phone is for video which is running a IP Camera app to stream High Quality video back to my computer over wifi.
Other parts include:
Vex tank treads (modified)
Servo city servo Block's
Robo Claw regenerative 2X5a dual motor controller
cheap brushed esc to act as a dimmer for the headlights
two turnigy 5000mah packs in series to power everythinrg

@hoolagen
ok cool. What kind of range are looking for? The same setup i have is about $200
ouch! yeah i dont need that much range...really enough range for a large house..for 200....i think i can hold out and get a tablet....
are there cheaper options?
one more thing....how did you actually remove the bluetooth piece from the ez-b?
i can put one together for about 120 the bluetooth is just held on with double sided tape
Ha! I'm in.
imrisacc not to bug you man.....but yeah i will totally buy one of there set ups.....whats the range i get for the 120 package....
i figure i might as well go for the set up you have.....
the 120 package really only gets 40-50 feet of indoor range, the is the setup i first had but was disappointed with the range. The setup i have now is what i would recommend it has excellent range i have used it 100 plus feet indoors. i have not even found its limits yet.
