Subject: Matching cars and people... (When car and rig unite? ;)

Okay... after playing with our screw-meister this weekend, I thought up a
couple mquestions for the group (and possibly DLoH).

1) Can control be "wrested" from the rigger controlling the drone? If so, does
the drone become yours?

2) How hard is it to find the right coded signal to a drone?

3) Can a drone be jammed?

4) How do you run people and cars simultaneously? In our case, our rigger
jumped in his car (32), started it up (22), drove up to (and through) the
warehouse (12) (and yes, we did check to see whether it could go that many
meters), and d-loaded on the crowd (2). Considering that a vehicle combat
turn is 1 minute, but the rules give speeds in meters per combat turn (which
only works if a combat turn is 3 seconds), how do you decide when the rigger
moves, in relation to everyone else?

Thanks, and if this is stated in RBB, my apologies. Like (Huth?) I don't
have the books in front of me, and so can't ramble accurately. BCNU, Rev
