So, with the revolving LED done, and now I only have to test-fit the front mandibles by searching for the Spinner’s parts hidden in the stash somewhere, I am ready to finalise the Main Board. This is going to be so good that I can foresee the Project move on to Production stage by 2026!
WTF…. Just when I thought everything was going to be smooth, the bump on the road turned into a sinkhole. The main board has gone through many revisions due to changing of connectors, fine-tuning the layout and so on. It was not until during last week that I started to revise the board’s shape to make sure the 5 rear LEDs can fit snugly without any lead bending, I noticed the problem.
There was some serious error in the circuit which I guess was during my reshuffling the LED connections sometime in the last two years. I did not realise this until I started to take another look at the circuits to refresh my mind.
How Now? Brown Cow?
I suppose the only way to know and to correct the whole circuit is to search for the prototype again, which is somewhere in the
