Here are two exemple of unusual RC

I started RC very early 26 years ago I was 10.......

My father was working hard all the day and his only pleasure was too look soccer match on TV in the evening. I remember I was siting in front of my father with my TX (A SPACE2 27Mhz) on my knees under the table(invisible to dad). At each critical phase of the match I switched my TX on, and this was making heavy parasite on the TV signal (no cable yet 25 years ago but a big antena on the roof) the image was totaly parasited. My father never understood why he was unable to see any Goal, but only the boring phases of the match

I also rember that I made a small black box I instaled in my sister's car between the battery and the Horn. Using one servo and a old mechanical electric motor curent variator I was able to control the horn of her car (in the range of my TX around the house).
