pic axe

[Modded Matt]

anyone have any experiance with the picaxe controller? I saw this over on x-s and I think this will be my next project. this seems very simialr to the spitfire, but its force programable inside the controller using a sterio jack. here is the shcematic they are showing


any thoughts??

I was also really interested in this. Unfortunatly I don't know too much about programming but you can always learn! What code are you planning on using? One more thing: what's force programming and what's a stereo jack?
P.S. I know killer skittle posted another schematic that's a little different.

a stereo jack is like a headphone jack.. this is very similar to spitfire, but spitfire uses an external chip. with picaxe, you can reprogram the chip inside the controller. the only difference is the stereo jack was added on his schematic.  the one I posted you use cable 1&2 to the stereo jack.

I will do a tut as I go along. I think I have most of the info I need. will deal with coding later, no big deal. Just want to be clear this is not my idea nor my schematic. but i am going to do the work. I must order all the parts today. I dont like that site, and skittles slightly immature. so I brought the idea here. its not his idea or drawing either though.

That would help me out a bit. About how much is this going to be? Also would both of those chips work with this programmer-

I can't find them in the supported devices section.

hey could either one of u guys make one of these for me?

Probably not, and don't bump old/dead topics. It's against the rules.

I hit a dead end and moved on rather quickly from this project. the only one I can find that did this is a young kid and I could not get much info out of him. I  could not find a place I trust to order the picaxe 14 chip from either.

try the viking mod, its hot right now, and will have very similar functions, however, the down fall is you must wait for the owner to write new code, and cannot change things on the fly yourself as you could wityh this.
