    Default Serial bootloader

    Hi,

    A serial bootloader will do the trick as long as you have a stable connection. Just make sure you have serie data in and from the pic and almost any standard boot loader would do the trick regardless if you have a cable or a RF connection.

    Default

    It's very do-able, but unless you can modifiy most boot-loader firmware & sometimes the PC
    side software, you'll need a set of RF modules with true bi-directional capabilites, and a way
    to reset the target so it can jump/vector to the boot-loader routine on reset.

    See this project: http://www.rentron.com/PicBasic/wireless.htm

    I did this for a client several years back, and it's still ticking.
