I have managed to multiplex motor output before. How about building a single motor powered tricycle device with the second motor steering the front wheel. Then use the front wheel at right-angles position, detected by a touch sensor, to change gears (...) (26 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Just a note. The German Marklin model train company offers a wireless camera built-in in a 'tiny' H0-scale train car. It's expensive but it prooves the technology is available at a consumer scale. Eric (26 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
