As a continuation from my motor shield article, I put my motor shield and Arduino combination on wheels and added a wireless shield to go with them.

Configuring XBees I used XBee Series 2 devices, and the setup is documented quite nicely in Arduino guides. In my setup XBee A is coordinator and transmits data to XBee B, which is a router, and XBee B sends data to XBee A. Both XBees use AT mode, since that is easier to work with than API mode.
