wireles mouse + rc car

I have a wireless mouse.
It's a logitech one: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/pr...CONTENTID=7061

Whenever my neightbour plays with his remote contorlled car (little kid, he plays with it a lot) my mouse goes all jerky, sometimes it stops moving altogether.

Is there anything i can do about that? :(

take the car and burned it ;)

:spamfrown JK. How close is the car to you residence? It must be one hell of a high quality vehicle to screw you mouse up :ermm:

It's a gas powered one...hopefully it will burn itself. :shifty:

@lp, yes it is a high quality one...gas powered, custom/home made, etc.
quality parts.
:cry:

Have you tried changing the channel that you mouse works on? I believe this will change the frequentcy that it operates on, therefore it won't share the same frequency as the car's remote.

I was thinking something like that.
How would i do that though? the only idea i have is press the reset/connect button but that didn't do anything.

In the battery compartment there should be a switch for selecting channels.

Nope...I just took it apart and there's no switched on the inside either.

Use a wired mouse.

or ask him if he has more than one frequency cyrstal set for his car, and try that, see if you get less interference,
although i though rc cars used completely different frequencies than other wireless stuff.
