Hey :) The Xbee I have here is mounted on a Lady Ada XBee Adaptor (google it for details) to convert the XBee 3.3 to 5v for the arduino. If you can get a 5v serial out from the iPhone you should be able to connect it easily using the adapter (or 3.3v from the iphone if you can get it).

How are you thinking of getting the serial/pins out of the iPhone?

Hello there!! I'm trying to connect an XBee module to the iPhone. Do you know if I can connect it directly or do I need an UART/RS232 converter?

Autonomy Control

If I slide the top one up too far it starts to question the purpose of its existence and shorts the battery pack. Stupid robot!

What are the sliders at the top of the remote for?

Speed, distance, or some yet unimplemented laser turret?
