Ahhhhhhhh was wondering why it’s… different now. Much improved I might say.

I have been planning on cataloging all of my parts so I can ask for some help combining them into the best builds that I can. I have something like 5-8 boards worth of parts and I can’t stop buying more.

That’s what I never understand. How do people end up having extras?
I wanted a board.
I planned my board.
I planned my buys.
I bought.
I built.
I burned.
I rebought.
I rebuilt.
0 extras…

No kidding, it’s easy to do here.
My first build ever, I didn’t use a single part that I bought when planning it out.
Every single part changed while I was building it and learning more. I had a full drive train, wheels, ,deck, enclosure…everything changed.
Except the battery, well it went from me planning on buying one to me making my own.

Received my robogotchi two weeks ago, decided to wait till after apple valley races to mess with boards and install it. crashed and dislocated my elbow at the races. still recovering. can probably install now… but sheesh.
i’ve gone from DIY slow to slower.

I’m debating on whether to send back my 60d and get one with functional uart ports or not. I only use my remote telemetry for esc temp really but it’s pretty important when I’m pushing it.
I asked if I could split off the rx and tx off the existing uart port as that’s all I’m using for the remote but radio silence.
Wonder if that uart splitter would play nicely or not.

I really feel like this is the wrong solution for this problem. I personally can’t get behind trusting a blackbox on a critical control signal. And no, you can’t split of tx/rx off the pins, it puts you in danger of packet collisions which can cause unexpected behavior.

NOOO!!! Credit for going for it, though. Pretty sure I would pee my pants at the prospect.

BTW, did everyone see that Dash won a race against some pretty damn stiff competition? Congrats, @DEEIF !
