Hi All,

The warranty has expired on my CPC 800 & I'm thinking it's time to make some changes. Thought I would run it past all you smart people here first to make sure im not :screwy:

The biggest problem I have is cables, so I was thinking of building in a bluetooth adaptor off the PC port, so no cables & no hand controller.

Looking at it, i think these two parts should do it:


Bluetooth Adaptor (http://littlebirdelectronics.com/products/bluetooth-modem-bluesmirf-silver)
Power Converter (http://littlebirdelectronics.com/products/breadboard-power-supply-stick-5v33v)

Also thinking about including a power output for my mallincam & possibly also embedding a video transmitter, something like This (http://www.aliexpress.com/product-gs/479151035-Free-shipping-5-8GHz-200mW-mini-wireless-video-transmitter-and-receiver-wholesalers.html)

There seems to be plenty of usable space in the arm to hide it all & I believe the 8amp power supply i use should cope with it all.

What do you think, am I crazy?

Regards,
Josh
