Abstract
This paper covers remote control of robotic objects, based on using protocol stack TCP/IP, by the example of joint russian-german space experiment «Kontur-2». A general description of experiment's current stage is given. Aspects, related to the implementation features of torque/force control of reconfigurable serpentine robot, using TCP/IP network, are detailed.

Key words
Kontur-2, remote control, robotic objects, TCP/IP.
