Remote control mouse

This is a discussion about Remote control mouse in the Slack Space category; Here's my idea: You know those micro radio-controlled cards made by Tomy (mine's called a Char-g I think) well I am thinking about buying a second one of the same frequency so that I can drive two from one control box.

Here's my idea:
 
You know those micro radio-controlled cards made by Tomy (mine's called a "Char-g" I think) well I am thinking about buying a second one of the same frequency so that I can drive two from one control box.
 
Then, I want to attach them to either side of a wireless-optical mouse and drive the mouse around the table.
 
Whilst the practical applications of this idea are nill, it would have some "wow" factor as well as some wanker value.
 
If I end up doing this, the next thing is to wire the mouse buttons from the control box.
 
However all this sounds like far too much effort so I mightn't bother anyway. :x x)

What are the chances that two will have the exact same frequency? Is the frequency posted on the box?

OP
Yeah, they put the frequency on the box.
One is 27mHz and the other is 46mHz or something. You are "meant" to buy two differening ones so you can race them around. Meanwhile I just use it at work to push things around the desk.
 
We did a scale speed test and found that it's top scale speed is 291km/h.
