    I've been looking for this video. I didn't realize you had yet to make it when I started looking! It was really cool to see the use of the mirror film. I swear I thought I'd come up with an idea nobody had thought of yet, and there you go even telling me what percentage tint to get. It was also handy to have it confirmed that wally world dorm mirrors are the least expensive source for mirrors. You Flite Test guys should have Jesse over for play dates more often! Either that or Jesse's channel needs more "Here's how you build cool gates & other LED art for whoop tracks". 😉 Oh, can anyone tell me if I'd have to dive into programming some microprocessor LED "driver" myself, or if there's something relatively canned available that I can connect LED strips to, that does a starfield type pattern or at least makes it possible to program one without you having to build the control computer from scratch? Any leads on where to start with getting a strip of LEDs to do that type of pattern would be greatly appreciated! Keep on Whoopin' and Happy flying everyone. Loved what Jesse said about the community! 😁👍

    ive had a look at the guide for these and have one suggestion, don run the Arduino nano on 5v. While the nano 'can' run on a 5v source, its built in regulator results in loss that drops the voltage below 5v and can result in it being unstable. you should run the nano at 6v or above to avoid the loss from the regulator and it can handle up to 20v.

  • @oufannco

    @oufannco

    4 жыл бұрын

    The regulator in the NANO is limited to 800 mA max and uses 50mA itself. A single string of these WS2812b LEDs can pull as much as 52mA per LED. We have 147 LEDs in a single string on this puppy. If you displayed full white, it could pull as much as 7.6A per string. This pattern pulls nowhere near that, but it is well over 1A per string. I've "accidentally" left a NANO using Vin regulated power on a 150 LED string and it fried the regulator.

    Pop rivets would shatter the Palruf material. They needed to be larger. I'm looking at doing a steel locking grommet approach to allow it to be taken apart and made more portable. The one we built at FTHQ was a permanent install though. Others are looking for something more portable.
