Yeah I know...I wasnt trying to turn this into a pi$$ing contest...

I'm feeling a little mischievous at the moment( dunno why must be my medication again...) I have a little indoor heli that weight less than an ounce and the motors are ever so small its unbelievable.....

Is bluetooth an option?
I'm mainly asking for myself, because I was thinking about a remote controlled robot with a camera. The idea is to connect the motors and the camera (maybe a simple USB webcam) to a microcontroller or FPGA which in turn is connected to a bluetooth IC.
For the remote, a PC or laptop (maybe even a phone) with a client that takes user input and displays the image from the webcam.

(the only reason I'm thinking of bluetooth is that I need a way to transmit the video back)

P.S: I posted here because I think my question is related, but if you think otherwise, I'd be happy to start a new thread or ask a moderator to split the topic)

I think the original post was about building robots for home use and not for commercial sale. If this is the case then any homemade system does not need CE approval and 2.4GHz systems are open for non licence holders. This is provided the power is kept below the regulation limits. With a System on a Chip, (SOC) device the output power can be set by software. The device I was thinking of is the CYRF6936 which has transmit and receive capability - so no problem with data coming back from the robot.
