One thing about programming is that… I don’t actually know what I am doing. But I’ve been having a go at it (OK, once in a while) since the turn of the Century and the results are more or less what I wanted. At first, it was just blinking LEDs and different sequences which was […]

I had a wonderful surprise today. And to be honest, I am so grateful that my finalisation of the Main Control Board PCB was delayed. It was supposed to be done before April but I was too busy with re-drawing the circuit to accommodate the new LED lights. And so, with a difference of one […]

The re-designed board for the AMT/ Revell model is going to be big. About three times the size of the original kind of big. If it was up to me, the size would not have changed much compared to the original. However, if I were to give this board to someone who does not know […]
20230407 The PCB Redesign
I am starting to think that lighting the cargo bay of the Revell’s Razor Crest is a bad idea. This means I had halt production to re-do the programming of the chip, redesign the circuit board and get more components to prototype the changes. There is a very high chance that I am going to […]
