A '''Stattenheim remote control''' was a device used by [[Time Lord]]s to control their [[TARDIS]]es after linking them to it.

 

 

 

When reflecting on how [[the War Chief]]'s [[SIDRAT]]s possessed dimensional flexibility and remote control, the [[Second Doctor]] remarked that "in [his] day" those were impossible to achieve without shortening the lifespan of the time machine. ([[TV]]: ''[[The War Games (TV story)|The War Games]]'') Later the [[Tremas Master]] commented that [[the Rani]] had "discovered the means" of controlling a TARDIS by remote. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Mark of the Rani (TV story)|The Mark of the Rani]]'')

When the [[Sixth Doctor]] asked the Second Doctor where he had got a Stattenheim remote control, the Second Doctor said that "Some of us have earned these little privileges." ([[TV]]: ''[[The Two Doctors (TV story)|The Two Doctors]]'') According to one account, he had been granted his remote control by the [[Celestial Intervention Agency]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[World Game (novel)|World Game]]'') According to another account this remote was given to him by {{Hound}} who stole it from [[Pavo]], in order to get [[the Doctor]] away from himself. When the Doctor attached it to his TARDIS, it synchronised it with those back on [[Gallifrey]], changing its interior appearance. It also created a dual control, allowing Gallifrey to control his TARDIS. Though the Monk reassured him that they'd be unaware of whose TARDIS was linked, merely directing the TARDIS to the input [[coordinate]]s.

The Master once tried to steal the Second Doctor's remote control, ([[GAME]]: ''[[Destiny of the Doctors (video game)|Destiny of the Doctors]]'') while [[The Master (First Frontier)|another incarnation]] created one to retrieve [[The Master's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] and escape [[1957]] [[Earth]].
