Re: Black box again

To list,

Well, I'm currently co-developing a dumb box with another semi-
commercial hobbyist. It's an open source, PIC based device that
handles 3 axes via serial port. Drawback is that it requires more or
less timed updates still, just fewer and farther between. Still in
development - I'll let the list know when it's done, if it flies that
is.

I think a good "fire and forget" USB smart controller on one chip
is long overdue in this hobby. Commercial ones are around, sure, but
they start at about a G-note and typically aren't scalable. So I got
some PIC's to engineer one the other month.... That's still cooking
too, but *way* on the back burner.
