Interactive battling robots with universal vehicle chassis

A universal chassis capable of accepting a variety of snap-on components, comprising:

• a chassis;
• an information processor for controlling the functionality of the chassis;
• an actuator linkage mounted on said chassis;
• at least one motor operable by said information processor for controlling said actuator linkage, said information processor detecting the presence or absence of a mechanical assembly of a snap-on component engaged with said actuator linkages for operation by said at least one motor;
• a receiver in communication with said information processor;
• and
• a radio frequency carrier selector for controlling the communication signals receivable at said receiver.

A playset including remote controlled interactive vehicles having universal chassis assemblies, the playset comprising:

• a plurality of transmitters each comprising a radio frequency transmission carrier selector for controlling communication signals transmittable from said transmitters;
• a plurality of vehicle chassis assemblies, each comprising:
• an information processor associated with each said vehicle chassis for controlling the functionality of respective vehicles;
• at least one motor operable by each respective information processor for controlling the maneuvering of the vehicles;
• a receiver in communication with each said information processor;
• and
• a radio frequency carrier selector for controlling the communication signals receivable at said receiver associated with each vehicle,
• wherein a radio frequency receiver carrier selector facilitates communication between transmitter-receiver pairs for individual operation of vehicle receivers simultaneously with other vehicles.
