I used XBee modules (https://www.sparkfun.com/pages/xbee_guide) for my GPS tracker project - 2 radios (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8665), and 2 XBee Explorer USB. It is very easy to use, just follow instructions to program in a channel for communication. Otherwise you just attach the modules to UART ports of robot and joystick microcontrollers and use it like regular serial communication.
