I have just tested adding Bluetooth to an Eggfinder receiver kit. I used an HC-06 and with some guidance from Cris Erving (Eggfinder vendor), I connected up the module to the receiver. Then, I downloaded Rocket Locator from Google Play Store onto my HTC Evo 4G LTE (Sprint provider). After getting all components turned on, I paired the phone with the HC-06 and opened Rocket Locator. After configuring RL to use the HC-06, I was presented with the real time map and directional data to my transmitter! I moved around the house and the data was updated appropriately. Next to test in the field at our next launch here in Houston.
I will mount this receiver setup in a project box obtained from Frys. I will extend the LEDs off the RX board to allow flush mounting in the box. I may do the same for the HC-06, but it is an SMD and that may be a Pain-Too-Far for me to execute. I will post photos as I proceed through this if there is any interest from the congregation.
