Abstract: The invention relates to a system and a method for remote control of an unmanned electric ground vehicle provided with at least one electric engine and a control unit for at least one engine. The invention also relates to the use of a digital handheld device provided as a remote control unit. According to the invention, a receiver unit is functionally connected to a control unit in said vehicle for receiving commands remotely, as the remote control unit sends command signals to the vehicle. The remote control unit is configurable to store at least one instruction set for a vehicle, each instruction set having at least one command and at least one command parameter. The command parameter indicates a condition to be applied to a command in the instruction set, which will affect the command signal and thus the behavior of the vehicle.
