Remote Control helicopters nearly always catch my eye. So I ‘m grateful to my friend Doug, from JAMM, for sending over a link to a post at Slashgear that shows off an iPhone app that controls an RC helicopter.
Mark another one up for the iPhone ‘s hacking potential: using the cellphone ‘s accelerometers to remotely control airplanes and helicopters. FliPhone is a home-grown app by Josh Ziering, which allows him to link his iPhone to a Linksys WiFi router onboard the R/C planes.

Well worth a look
