Notes on electronics...
Added 2017-06-09 05:59:59 +0000 UTCObviously there's many ways of bringing Artoo to life with different electronic solutions. I thought I'd share my purchases so far and the build. I'm going for a Padawan 360 control. This is based around an Xbox 360 controller and put together by Dan Kraus https://github.com/dankraus/padawan360.
I've got so far:

2017-06-16 02:24:24 +0000 UTCThanks for all this Michael! I'm curious, the Ground Loop isolator link brings us to the Arduino sketches. Is that correct?
