Just a little forewarning to those thinking of doing this. I’ve been having issues with the servos I have listed in the parts list. I’ve gone through 3/4 that I have so far. So I’m shopping around looking for something else that will work that is the right size for this project. I’ll give an update when I find something.
Thanks for the heads up!
Where’s that schematic, Matt?
I’ve mentioned this before, but only once. There’s a new way to document projects like this, check it out:
ChapterMasterTu’Shan is the one working on the schematics. From what he told me last, he was going to order the parts to do a test build of his schematic before they are released to you guys. So we are waiting on that right now.
Rock on. Thanks for the update!
Definitely let me know when the schematics are ready.
There’s been a little progress but still no definite timeframe.
I have a prototype board etching now.
I’m a fan of this.
And TJ makes his triumphant return to the boards with a proclamation of progression with this project! Hurray!
Any update on a schematic?
The few test boards had some issues that needed fixing. Combine that with TJ getting a new computer, the death of a family member (as cliche as that sounds) and prepairing for Wizard World Philly this weekend progress has been slow. Expect new progress in a few weeks.
Yeah, my dad decided to finally succumb to cancer. Sorry.
That’s terrible. I’m sorry to hear that. Please take are of yourself and your family.
I also need to transfer all my custom Eagle library parts to my new computer.
I’m truly sorry for your loss. I know what its like to lose a father. I’ll keep you and your family in my prayers.
I’m in the middle of transferring all my files over to a new computer. I had to design some custom library parts in Eagle, but keep an eye on this thread. I’ve vetted our schematic and am going to bite the bullet and get a few boards made.
Right now, I’m concentrating more on getting the main board functioning easily, as the wings and screen are easy compared to the rest.
