Dude soo good He should make instruction videos about my life.

Chapeau to you man, this was a pro video showing exactly what I needed to do. Thank you.

Just purchased a Tilt , I didn't realise it was that easy

Something I saw you do that wasn’t mentioned you were using a pot scrubber to clean your soldering tip not a wet sponge. Good man. Too many people still use a wet sponge and thermoshock their solder tip. It’s worth a mention 😉

Thank you, you actually helped me A LOT with the assembly of our iSpindel, great video!

Beautiful soldering mate 👍

Hey dude, just wanted to commend you on the great vid, really well done and easy to follow. Keep up the good work.

Great video. Easy to see what you're doing and explained well. Looking forward to the next one.

CANT WAIT FOR HOW TO SETUP AND CALIBRATE AND HOW TO USE IN I BREWFATHERS VDOS. THKS

Will be shooting the calibration video tomorrow so it should be up in the next few days!

Excellent video, best I have seen on putting together an ispindel 😀. A couple of extra tips: 1. You may need to install a driver on your computer so it can see the wemos, see docs.wemos.cc/en/latest/ch340_driver.html 2. Mind your eyes when cutting down the pins, the little pieces of metal can fly right at you at high speed

Both good tips. And yes, I would normally actually hold a finger on the pins to stop them flying or cut them inside a bag, but for easy visuals / demonstration it was better to show in the open. Protect your eyes people!

@@WoollyCraftBeer I built one successfully myself with parts I ordered. After tinkering I finally got it to work. First the suggestion by Andy Adams helped me out to recognize that the WeMOS is connected. Then I still couldn't flash the WeMOS, a problem several people seemed to have as well. After an extensive search I found out that some of the WeMOS chips are shipped out and GND has to be connected to the D3 pin to be able to write to it. Strangely enough I had to do that only once. After that there was no problem any longer to write to the chip (I have no idea why because I'm not at all knowledgeable about electronics). No idea how to let everyone who had this flashing problem know this solution. You have any idea?

Thanks for such a great follow-along video! The kit arrived on Tuesday and I have an I-Spindel ready for calibration...will follow your other video for that. Cheers

Excellent video, thank you. I have ordered two kits from you on ebay. Can't wait for your next videos.

That was extremely helpful. Thanks very much. Cheers!

G'day, Just wanted to say a big thankyou for your videos! I bought one of your DIY kits and was able to assemble, upload the firmware, calibrate it and set it up with brewfather with ease thanks to your easy to follow guides! Cheers!

Thanks a lot! Cheers cherryphilip

Greatly appreciated. I have a kit on order and how to have it built soon!

Great video. Where can I find the design file of this PCB so I can send to my PCB supplier ?

thank you for this, do you know if we can use regular alkaline double aa batteries and get rid of the battery charger altogether?

Anyway to flash the firmware via Mac?

Great set of videos. 2 questions. Are you going to have kids available again soon? Any chance of providing the different coloured PCBs?

Great video! Easy to follow. Can I please have your link to buy a kit ?

Very nice, but in this build with a PCB board ( i have the chery phillips 4.0) its not necessary to remove the diode of the wemos d1?

@WoollyCraftBeer

4 жыл бұрын

The reason people remove the diode is to stop the battery being fed 5V when the Wemos is connected via USB. As this is only a problem under this situation, I recommend just removing the battery if you ever need to plug in to the Wemos board. It's very easy to damage the board if you aren't careful when you remove the diode, and it will also mean you can't use this USB port for debugging etc. So I find it easier to just keep the diode, but remove the battery if plugging in to the Wemos

Good guide did you have to change the setting baud rate on flashing Node software.

Hi David. I haven't had to change this rate at all in the builds I have done

i have two types of 220k ohm resistors one which is large like in your video and another one which is about the size of the 47k. the small one says 220k on the strip is there a way to see which one is right ? the color coding is the same as in your video thanks. ps very nice video

Hello, thks for the video. Do you know what is the max temperature that the iSpindel can undertake in the bucket ? wanna check a flash pasteurization temperature with it. cheers

awesome video! i have 3 at home that i just built but i cant seem to get them flashed?? when i connect it to the pc i just get an error in my flash software "com port not connected". any suggestions???

Hello, I really like the project. Could you make a video about a simplistic project made with these 3 materials: ESP8266 mini wifi, nodemcu 18650 module, battery development board, nodemcu pwm; MPU-6500 GY-6500 Sensor Module 3-Axis Gyroscope + 3-Axis Accelerometer Replace MPU6000 MPU6500; DS18B20 Temperature Sensor, Dallas 18B20 DS1822 to-92 Digital Temperature Sensor for Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Sorry for the English translated by google. Thanks in advance for your attention, have a great day.

Great tutorial, it made assembly straight forward. I however am having issues flashing the firmware. Com Port doesn't change and I get notices under the status bar... ("gpio ") and ("wifi")...what did I do wrong? Any advise or direction to advise elsewhere is a appreciated.

Jonathan Baker, as I mentioned I encountered exactly the same problem, same ("wifi"), ("gpio") messages fading in and out. I found the solution: some WeMOS chips that are shipped out have to be modified one time only to make them writeable. You have to connect the GND to pin D3 and it will work. You only have to do that one time. Now my iSpindel is working fine and I can start with the calibration.

How many additional pins do you need above the parts listed?

What's your opinion of the CherryPhilip 4.0 pcb vs the Jeffrey 2.1 pcb? Great video!

@WoollyCraftBeer

4 жыл бұрын

Personally I like the 4.0 Board as if you use a known combination, everything should just fit together and float within the specific tolerances. The main thing you need to get right with the 4.0 PCB is the battery weight. The Jeffery gives you adjustable height for your battery so that you can use a wider range of batteries, but it can be a pain to desolder and resolder over and over to get the specific location you need, and if you ever change to a different capacity battery you need to resolder. If you are looking at building one I'd recommend the 4.0 board and a 42-46g battery. These Pansonics are good because they still fall in float specs but being a little bigger give great battery life

Is the kit available in the USA?

Can the BAT43 Schottky Diode be substituted by another diode. It's the only part I cannot find here in Thailand.

Great video but I have a question... Do you know of any reason why the tilt degrees wouldnt be registering on the ispindel I made? I have built 3 now and the connections etc. are all great on them and the LED lights up too on the gyro, but for some reason the tilt wont work when on the spindel software. The temperature works perfect and the battery power etc. just not the tilt figure. Any help would be massively appreciated :) Keep up the great work

So when I try the wifi I am given a link to FaryLink and when I connect it won't let me connect to the config page using the no 192etc. How do I get around this?
