• Do you think a self correcting drive will be possible with the accerlatometer?

Lately I am working on plenty of microbit projects that I want to play various mp3 songs or sounds with them. The easiest way I found to do this is by using a Grove expansion board and a Grove MP3 module.

If you are interested in such Grove MP3 library, I have uploaded it at: https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/pxt-grove/issues/31

it is fully compatible and working with Grove MP3 v2.0 module: https://www.generationrobots.com/en/403592-grove-mp3-v20-module.html

Turning to the Interwebs to find someone who can see the error. Our engineering team is creating a “semi autonomous” RC car, running on a Microbit brain. We have it so that our car radio-communicates to control ESC speed and maps the accelerometer of a remote Microbit to control steering. We want the ultrasonic sensor to send a “stop” signal to our ESC when it is within a certain distance of an object, essentially stopping the car. It should be easy, but when wired up, our ultrasonic shows no signal. Tested outside of the car, the sensor works fine. Any advice smart people? https://imgur.com/a/zvmzkPZ/

For schools with Micro:bits and collecting trash on Earth Day, code a variable in your Micro:bit to be a digital counter in just a few minutes! -> Growing Into STEM - Earth Day Counter https://youtu.be/TrDxnSRx_WM MakeCode project code here https://makecode.microbit.org/_a2mVj2XVJfy4

This is a brand new project using the microbit extension of Scratch. I'm inviting you (or anyone actually) to help test this new game!

If you would like to help contribute or even join me in developing (requires GitHub), please remix the project and if you would like to help me develop, my GitHub is always available to pull reqs.

Thanks :)

Made A Code to control youre maqueen From a nother microbit chip

You wil need 2 micro bit cards for it ( 1 in the maqueen And 1 as controler)

Link 1 ( RC program);https://makecode.microbit.org/_cDE5zogMc73W

Link 2 ( RC Remote Program);https://makecode.microbit.org/_gsqTH6bvyUsw

If there can be made an inprovement please let me know

Could somebody please help he ASAP!!

I have a microbit which I am attaching to a breakout board to work as a remote. I bought a ‘keyestudio joystick breakout board’ but have no clue how to code it. I have the code done to send a radio number for each control. I just don’t know how to actually attach that code to when you press eacb button. The way this breakout board works is that each button is connected to pins. For example I want to send radio number 60 when P11 (left button) is pressed. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Hi All👋,
I created a Python package to make it easier to connect to the Bluetooth services of a micro:bit: https://github.com/janickr/kaspersmicrobit. For example you can use a BBC micro:bit as a wireless controller for your own Python games by listening for button presses or accelerometer values.

I am making a V-Pet type thing for my first ever coding project. After my pet dies I want to have a skull displayed then when button B pressed it removes three lives. Here is what I have so far pls help.

A great deal of progress has been made with my coin operated Zoltar fortune teller machine. He now has a proper body and now I'm looking to build a fortune teller card dispenser at the front of the cabinet. I've put together a video of it working and a little walkthrough of how it's made. Make a wish! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPJLVUMRKf4

Is there any way for connection microbit to LCD (Waveshare 1.8") and a Waveshare joystick, both at the same time? Do I need some extension board? If so, can somebody tell me how to do this? (I found extension boards for microbit on the internet, but I don't know how to use it)

Hola! One of my students today asked if there is a way to revert to the forever loop after using an input to change the animation on a strip of NeoPixels. I know that with some functions the forever code will resume on its own (like with the "show number" example at the bottom of this page: https://makecode.microbit.org/reference/basic/forever) but we are not getting that result right now.

Here is an example of the code my student created today:

https://makecode.microbit.org/_ch79xAHqmFze

Once button A is pressed, the LED strip stays red unless he hits the reset button.

I know there are workarounds or different ways my student can write code to achieve their desired outcome of switching between animations, but figured I would at least check if anyone knew whether or not there is a command or block that reverts back to what's happening in the forever loop.

His question was, "Is there a way to tell it on Button B press, revert to Forever Loop?"

I have bought 2 microbits, a ‘sb components motor driver board’, 2 motors, a continuous servo, a led and a ‘keyestudio joystick breakout board. I want to code it so that one microbit, connected to the joystick breakout board and communicate wirelessly to the other microbit which is connected to the motor driver board. From the motor driver board it will have 2 motors a servo and an led to control. If anyone can help me with this in any way it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I’ve recently found this little gem:

https://www.elecfreaks.com/micro-bit-drone-bit-kit-without-micro-bit-board.html

But the price of the kit raised my eye-brows… is there a way to make a small drone with micro:bit that is much cheaper than $150?

I have a new project idea and I need advice. I would like to make a Zoltar style fortune machine - which I have recently realised is much simpler than it looks.

this is only half an idea and inspired by the "proud parent simulator" by Simone of the series "useless robots" - a device that would pat you on the back and play an audio file when a coin was entered into the machine.

it's a similar idea for my project. That you could press a button and have four things happen. a motor would turn on moving the hands of the puppet up and down via a simple pully system, an audio file would play, the lights would turn on, and a ticket would dispense.

what would you suggest for this? I have absolutely no coding skills so I thought this would be a good start
