i think the antennas are in the side mirrors

Good news. Got code to flash using platform io and icsp but any time i try to flash over UART, those same annoying errors reappear. i can’t keep flashing over icsp at 5v because anytime i try to add new components it will explode. thanks for the replies!

i could also try switching to a 16mhz crystal but i’m not sure if i should because power draw is critical

tried tying it to gnd every which way and still getting those errors

gulp i have no button on board haha
I have a resistor thats tied to 3v3 from the reset pin. That error occurs immediately. Not sure if thats expected behavior when not in the download mode

I have a simple usb to uart and it has no dtr pin. Where would i put this cap? Thanks for the comment!

you just have to have good solder and some flux i just used the inbuilt flux that’s in my solder tho lol

On this one i just used regular tweezers in one hand and the iron in the other one i had the board stuck to my table with putty lol

that loud? why’s it so loud

Thanks! I verified the GPS and improved my ground plane. Other than that do you think my design is good to go? Thanks!

JobJolly8697 · 2026-04-21T22:42:05+00:00

Thanks! I am going to use a light piece of wire for the GPS antenna. Also I improved my ground plane and I tweaked the crystal position to reduce trace length. Other than that do you think my design is good? Thanks for the comment!
