Radio Controlled F1 Car
Sure, remote control cars we’ve seen. Full sized even on Discovery Channel. Pretty sure this is the first time you’ve seen one controlled via Bluetooth on a BlackBerry Phone though.
Sure, it’s not MINI related, but it’s Friday and this was the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while.
<p>At first when watching it, I thought “oh that’s pretty cool, a Bluetooth-controlled RC car. Neat… then it got to the 1:35 point… OK, this gets interesting… and it just gets cooler and cooler from there.</p>
<p>Awesome! :D</p>
<p>Wicked, cool! I can’t believe they allowed a multi-million dollar piece of equipment to be put under “remote” control.</p>
<p>No Freakin WAY!</p>
<p>Awesome! One the best vids in recent time.</p>
<p>Shoulda used an iPhone, but the driver was right on.</p>
<p>Holy f…ing crap. That is the coolest thing I have ever seen.</p>
<p>Be sure to turn up your speakers for this one!</p>
<p>it’s funny that the ads on the side of this page are for RC cars. context sensitive ads are getting smarter.</p>
<p>What if that car had driven out of range? I didn’t think bluetooth could reach that far.</p>
<p>F1 Drones.</p>
<p>It’s a Vodafone ad, I’m guessing from the UK. Doubt they actually controlled the McLaren F1 car via the Blackberry, more than likely some special effects going on there…but I have no doubt the Blackberry controlled the RC McLaren.</p>
<p>Regardless, it’s a damn good video!</p>
