We might consider to study a special "good-practice" guidance for tiny boards like Netduino.

That would be perfect for a tutorial Perfect for newbies like me that want to learn the best practice on MF

BTW, we're working on a little something "Mega-style". More on that later.

I want to know

NVM, used the hold button down + erase technique eventually worked.

Timing is the key

Add a yellow for the right position you want (hardcoded since no interface) and a red when you go beyond the right position. That would be a perfect solution. (human factor specialist in me had to comment) Besides that good work and Welcome to the community

However, in case you don't want any SD, you may use an external memory via SPI or I2C.

Can you point towards an exemple of SPI or I2C external memory ? I'd like to see how that works

• Featured project link on the front page takes you to the projects page, but the featured project is not listed.
• Hardware link only shows the original netduino not the mini or plus

Welcome to the community

LOL, I use the specs page often and yes it is missing the mini and the PLUS specs (how many IO pins, which one are they, etc.) And the Projects page is a missnomer ... I agree that the Projects page should have a series of official projects with a link to the rest of the project showcase (and wiki).

But that goes to show that they are very busy with their HOT PRODUCTS !

You make a good point ! That is why some of us are working hard at doing more structured tutorials for newbies like me

Try to type keywords in the Forum search, you might get many things you are looking for.

LOL Well if you want to make it really special add a Kinect like these guys at MIT:

I have to find the link again but I saw something using laser doing the same lol I like the Kinect idea but first lets make it fly (read hover) then we'll add mode (follow path, return home, land from here, etc...)

Here's a small google spreadsheet with the netduino -> MCU pin mappings.

Thanks, noted !

This is way out of my league but I agree with him, a special topic in the forum for this advanced topic

I ordered my Netduino Plus

Welcome to the community

Is there a reference document or any other resource that has the complete list of these types of functions and there parameters?

Working on it !

There is a bunch of code samples all over the place (and some in the sandbox.netduino.com) but I am working on a series of formal Tutorials (with Fritzing diagrams, documentation and code sample) and, I am also planning to get this list of functions/types available to us in the SecretLabs namespace (Chris I'll need your input for that).

It should be organized and easy to find

In the meantime, search the forums using keywords like SPI or I2C, you should find something that helps

Mike.

you may take a look at the GHI's boards: they already offer something you are dreaming for!

Might have to when I start to really build the quadcopter, might need the speed ... but for now, I have to much fun here, this community is too great !

Be free and happy

Posted by Michel Trahan on 21 April 2011 - 10:51 AM in General Discussion

Hmm - a bit on the 'content free' side?

You think ? LoL

Lots of fine looking buildings though!

Saw the inside of them a couple of years ago when doing a job interview (6 out of 7 meetings, they usually give you your office key at the 7th ... missed it by that much), and the inside is great ! You should see the cafeteria, with their own chefs (yeah read chefs, with an s) lol

But the best was that on every floor there was softdrink distributor (free that is) with every imaginable kind of softdrink

Pity What about a netduino mega version ? speedier ARM9 with a lots of memory ? Just dreaming I know
