if you design the motor correctly it should be able to handle the dynamic range of speed and torque with out mechanical gearing... i think your thinking of a single drive train... which likely it won't have.

If you are independently wealthy you can go for Davis Instruments or Young. IndyCar uses Davis to instrument their tracks. Most storm chasers I know use Young.

I purchased "Assembled Feather HUZZAH w/ ESP8266", for my tracking project developed in Azure IOT platform, can I use any 3rd party SIM 808 boards with Feather HUZZAH w/ ESP8266?? If yes, which PINS in HUZZAH should be used to communicate with SIM808 module? Also, what other adafruit processors are Azure IOT compatible and works with 3rd party SIM808? Information would be greatly helpful, thanks..

I also cleaned up my Sheaffer calligraphy pens.

Hey @open girder will the touch version of the Hyper Pixel display be back in stock soon?

@lean grail no ETA at this time, however, sign up to be notified so ya get an email right away when it's back in stock

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 10:49 PM

Alright, thank you very much! i was gonna use one for a rPi 3 B+ to make an octoprint server. Maybe I will get another display for the time being.

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 10:51 PM

Early release of the code, yay 😃

@waxen thistle I know!!! And the prop wing is on the site toooo!!! im about to order one!!!! I wanna attempt to port my lightsaber code to the feather so I can use the wing!!!

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 10:54 PM

#

Two weeks ago at a flea market, I bought 10x "BladeBuilder" lightsabers (one of their official variants) at $2 each. Then the next day, I went to a GameStop and got two really nice $60 Kylo Ren sabers (with a molded fixed blade, really well done) for $6 each.

So, many sacrificial lightsabers to be had. Sadly, I only have two hands...can't lose any of them so I have to be careful. 🖖 ⚔

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 10:55 PM

#

lol. my lightsaber hilt and blade are both from UltraSabers

#

I got Noe hooked on their blades tooo

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 10:57 PM

#

I've heard of them I think -- the really beautiful machined ones, right?

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 10:57 PM

#

yeah. there are definitely better out there. but i liked the hilt i got.

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 10:58 PM

#

Have a photo of it? I'd love to see it

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 10:58 PM

#

Not at the moment 😛 You'll have to wait till maybe next week, I'll try and show it off on Show n Tell if i can get it working again in time

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 11:00 PM

#

ooo, even better

#

That's no comparison to the literal plastic toys I picked up...but they're a great way to practice and cheaper @ $2 compared to 3D printing.

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:01 PM

#

oh i agreed! my hilt and blade cost me $180ish

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

I've thought about converting one of the Graflex 3-cell flashguns I own to a Luke Skywalker saber. But man, i can't bring myself to do it yet.

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:05 PM

#

Hey @waxen thistle do you mess around with Ras Pi's and 3d printing that much?

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 11:05 PM

#

A little bit, not as much as I really want to. Why do you ask, what's up? 😃

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

I just got a 3d printer like last week. Im going to order a Pi 3 B+ to run an octoprint server on and I wanted to get the Hyper Pixel Display for it but adafruit doesnt have them in stock. one of my friends was heavily trying to push me towards getting the Pi Foundation's 7 inch screen instead. What would you recommend? Im mostly going to be using it for Octoprint but i may find another use for it at the same time. Like running that ad block software that Lady Ada likes

odd stream Oct 24, 2018, 11:09 PM

#

@lean grail I'm running OctoPrint on a Pi0w for mine quite nicely.

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:09 PM

#

Ah nice

#

Do you have a touchscreen display plugged into it Dastels?

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

Ok, so this isn't my project -- but I saw this today on Reddit. It's a potential reuse of that RPi official screen. And with that bamboo frame from amazon, it looks purdy.

I have one of adafruit's monitors + speakers screwed onto a tabletop tripod as my "mobile RPi" setup myself.

#

That is my setup there

#

and that extends taller too

#

Oben BD-1 tripod from B&H photo

#

I velcro the RPi (in a case) to the back of the monitor

#

and use short HDMI cables. I have two power adapters (one for the screen, another for the RPI) zip-tied together with the same cable length

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:13 PM

#

Ohhhhhhh the bamboo case is only $16 on amazon!!!

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 11:17 PM

#

I know. and that monitor is powered off the RPi if memory serves correctly. It's very appealing.

#

Or I think the RPi is powered off the monitor's board, to be precise.

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:18 PM

#

the display looks like it has a micro usb plug for the display for power. but it can also be powered from the Pi as long as your power supply is strong enough

#

I think im gonna get that 7" display. its a bit more than i wanted to spend. but i can definitely find a use for it.

waxen thistle Oct 24, 2018, 11:20 PM

#

I was on the fence myself, but that project on Reddit has all but turned me. I want a small "dashboard" for monitoring my devices/services. Hard to beat a 2.5amp @ 5v power draw.

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:22 PM

#

yeah really. I'll have to get that power supply at a different time. But im gonna try to make this display into an octoprint server and an adblock server and possibly one of those nice magic mirror displays I think

odd stream Oct 24, 2018, 11:23 PM

#

@lean grail No, the Pi0w is internal to the printer.

lean grail Oct 24, 2018, 11:24 PM

#

@odd stream on your octoprint server?? thats really cool!

#

ooooofff. Adafruit has struck the wallet yet again! CURSE YOU @open girder !!!!

The Pi mounts directly to the printer control board. It's designed to use the Pi as an integrated octoprint server. Perfab microSD image & everything.

They’re both standard 232 control signs

#

Signals

lament sluice Oct 25, 2018, 1:10 AM

as long as you're not using flow control you should be able to use either or both sets for whatever you want

@rapid hornet Have fun, and be careful of sparky .

sinful oriole Oct 25, 2018, 1:11 AM

I am using flow control, though so I have to get them right

Are the Adafruit songs posted for download anywhere?

eager sapphire Oct 25, 2018, 1:11 AM

Then you may have to “lie” to the control code, telling it that it is DTR instead of CTS, etc.

for what it costs to just get a breakout that gives me the pins I actually need, it wasn't worth trying to fiddle

I also have one of the USB to RS232, but then I have to deal with getting the signal voltages right for the TTL device I'm connecting

because the CTS/RTS RS232 voltage is too high
