News - Little Box Stores | about 4 months ago
Hobby stores are dying in my area (San Jose, CA). There’s one catering to electric cars (and a bit of general R/C hobbying), and one catering to electric flight. There’s definitely a cultural difference between the two markets. But it’s hard to find places any more.
Around here we have three Techshop locations. They each have a retail store. You should try to get into those. They’re open 7 days a week, like 9 am to midnight.
Radio Shack is not a bad idea, given their recent push into the Maker space. Not exactly “little box,” though. There’s also Fry’s. I’ve seen Parallax stuff in Fry’s, and I thought I’d seen SparkFun things there, too.
Locally, there’s also Anchor Electronics to consider.

I’d sure like to know, too! Eagerly awaiting mine. Also, my order status is a bit confusing. It says “shipped,” but the details still offer me a button to settle the balance. I hope I have one forthcoming…

I love that you guys are so generous, and generally awesome, but it really kinda sucks to get up, sit down, try to load the home page at 8:00:05, and completely fail to get anywhere. I’ve been a customer since 1/2006, and I’m not about to stop, but this is more of a random drawing than anything I really have control over.

Aww, you’re killing me. I just got this, and I find the I2S pins are the ONLY ones not brought out on the breakout board. Boo.

Eh, I think 36 Hz will be fine. My system’s dynamics are unlikely to be faster than that.
Product SEN-08370 | about 2 years ago
Near as I can tell (and assuming I did the math right), this board constrains the bandwidth on the gyro to about 36 Hz (-3dB point). Am I correct? Can I replace the cap with smaller one and increase the -3dB point to, say, 100 Hz? TIA

Datasheet says it supports WEP128, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK (TKIP and AES).
