is it possible to connect a Nintendo Switch controller to a TRX-4 Sport?

[ZaneC]

Just a thought, is it possible to connect a Nintendo Switch controller to an RC car like my TRX-4 Sport?

I'm no electronic engineer, but I would think the receiver would need to be able to pick up Bluetooth signal, and the Switch controller would need to be programmed to control speed and servo(s) functions.

I'm sure its possible but its just figuring out how to make it work. Adding on to @Xraycer , with bluetooth, you won't be able to get the range like you do with an ordinary radio. Maybe I'm wrong, but lets say i connect my phone via bluetooth to my speaker. Usually I can't walk more than 30ft without the audio from the speaker getting disconnected. Maybe bluetooth can do much farther ranges but thats just my thinking.

You would probably need something to convert the BT signal to PWM.

I would say most likely possible, butttttt......is it really worth going through all the trouble for a massively inferior signal range?

I think not!

Probably not easily

It is possible. Here's an rc that is BT controlled

better do some investigative work and read the reviews of the 30' range
